I'm not quite sure if this is the right place for my question, but I just couldn't find a better thread for this request. I (Dutchy) want to purchase a Breitling, but don't want to spend more then €3k on a first watch. I want to buy it new/mint and it must be automatic. What do you guys think I can choose from, if any? ![]() |

So many variables involved eg what size are you looking for? Do you want a chrono? etc etc. For what it's worth if I was going to spend 3K on a new Breitling I'd go for the SO44 or try to get discount on an Avenger Seawolf. Good luck with your choice. |

Yes, really like that Avenger Seawolf. That's really the type of watch I'm looking for. Not a fan of the SO44, but thank you so much for thinking with me. I have no particular size in mind. Just want a nice looking watch that I can go with for years. |

I'd try to get hold of a Steelfish. Not many out there, but worth a try. |

I should have said, if it's your first Breitling it's worth trying to have a look at your intended watch with a rubber and leather strap as well as a standard bracelet. IMHO some watches work with all three, some don't. By changing the bracelet / strap it can give your watch a totally different look. It's a lot cheaper than buying a new watch but admittedly not as much fun. ![]() |

I would go with the superocean chrono. Sporty and can easy be dressed up. Has the rugged look of a utility watch but with the polished finish can be worn with a suit. |
