In the 1985 catalogue on page 9, I own the watch that is number 32. I bought it in the early 80s when I was in high school and worked in a jewelry store. I can't seem to find any reference to it on the internet, except for the 1985 catalogue on this forum. Is my watch of any value? Also I was looking for a spare two tone bracelet for it, but can't find one. The bracelet on this watch is unique because two pieces of the bracelet is attached to the body of the watch. So the bracelet is custom matched to the watch. Any help would be appreciated. |

I've split this out from where you posted it and moved it to the right forum. It's a Tabarly quartz and isn't worth very much. These early quartz movements are failing and are non serviceable so they are only selling for a few hundred bucks. |

Thanks for the reply. Actually mine is not a Tabarly, there is not signature on the dial and the dial is grey. It is an earlier version, I think I bought it in 1982. I bought it new with my jewelry store discount for about $300.00. Probably still not worth much. But I really loved the watch. I have not used it in years because it needs a new clasp. I would appriciate it if someone could tell me where I could get a replacement clasp...if possible. I attached a pic of mine. Attachment: IMG956812.jpg

I don't think that there is any supplier of those clasps any more, may need to replace the entire bracelet. |

Ok, I have more info and a correction. My watch on the back does say it is an Eric Tabarly, it just doesn't have it on the dial. I found the appraisal I had my manager at the jewelry store write for me on the watch after I bought it. The appraisal is dated June 5, 1984. Model: 80770 1476 Retail Price: $480.00 Possible Store Stock#:1210BC Description: Gents Breitling Watch Water proof to 600 ft, 12 Meter Chronograph, Compass Bezel, Swiss craftsmanship quartz movement. I have attached better pictures. |

These are commonly seen on ebay. You might want to keep an eye open for a none working one for parts. |
