The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Hi,

First post - and not great circumstances behind it!

Until a few days ago, I was the very proud owner of a Limited Edition Red Arrows Breitling Emergency with Co-pilot strap, a Limited Edition Red Arrows Aerospace and a Limited Edition Harrier Aerospace - all 3 have been stolen. I'm absolutely gutted.

Notwithstanding the monetary value, all three watches have huge sentimental value to me (I was a Red Arrows pilot and a Harrier pilot before that) and I would dearly like to get them back.

Given that they are so distinctive and rare, the Police are hopeful that they might be recognised if they resurface somewhere. Knowing that everyone here takes a keen interest in Breitlings, could I respectfully ask that if you hear of any of them coming onto the market that you pm me, or contact the Police (101 - Badge 4716)?

Both Red Arrows watches have the Red Arrows crest on the face and the Harrier watch has the outline of a Harrier in platform that replaces the number '3'. They were stolen in Bristol so might resurface there first.

Many thanks,

VA

sorry to hear about your loss , but welcome to the forum

just a suggestion, it might help if you state where this happened in the world ? , it may turn up locally and if a local person knows about it he may be more on his / her guard

Welcome and we'll keep our eyes open.

Also worth letting Breitling UK in Tunbridge Wells know, they can monitor if the watches are ever sent to them for servicing / repair. Welcome to BreitlingSource and sorry it's not under better circumstances.

Welcome and I wish I could say this in better circumstances!
What might also help is the serial numbers of the watches that have been stollen from you.
Most of the time people prefer not to disclose their watches serial numbers but under these circumstances it might help. Lets face it, you don't have much to loose now.
Most of us here hate cheats and theves so I'm sure that information could be of help if your watches happen to surface somewhere.

Wish you all the best getting them back!

Also, do you know the limited production number of each of the pieces (xx/500) so that they can be instantly recognized if they are ever listed for sale or seen in the Wild? The more info we have, the better!

Sorry to hear this mate. Hope the police are able to track them down.

Hi and welcome!

Also, the most obvious....check ebay (current listings as well as completed listings).

That's awful, I hope they get caught and you can recover your watches.
