As said in another thread, the TOC 38 is officially not produced anymore since 2015 because of low sales.

Too bad , its IMO one of their absolute best looking offerings , they should have never aimed it at the female clientele ? Its almost the perfect size and fantastically looking

Potentially very collectable in 10-15 years from now !

Definitely a case of bad positioning. Breitling killed it at birth by aiming at the female market specifically.

Totally agree. i was looking at some last week at the Breitling boutique in Sydney. They'd been defaced with diamonds but it's still a beautiful watch.

That's a shame. As someone with smaller wrists the 38 looked great on me.

This was our take on the watch (and the folly of its marketing) when it came out:

Some pretty prophetic comments there.
