According to Breitling and the limited information they provided I believe this watch to be 1/14 produced in 1992. Can anyone tell me if they have seen any like this or if they know the value. Thank you |

The case is approx 38mm and the dial is mother of pearl. |

Welcome to BreitlingSource. Sirius Perpetual is nearer mid 90s than 1992, and no indication this is a limited edition from the caseback, although these do all seem to have lower serial numbers (though 88 implies more than 14). I don't do valuations and general advice is to check sold eBay sales or dealer asking prices on Chrono24. That's going to be of limited help but this piece has been offered previously, sometimes with the matching gold bracelet. If you're looking to sell it's going to be 'only' a 20 plus year old automatic that is rather small for today's tastes, without any service history it's likely a $750 watch in steel plus whatever value the gold adds. |

Thank you very much for your help, I have had this watch for 6 months and have not stopped researching it but seem to be stuck. I have been in contact with Breitling London Head Office and they have informed me it was only 1 of 14 produced in 1992 being 18ct yellow gold and mother of pearl and automatic. (I have emails sent by them) however I have been researching this model, case number like you have suggested via chrono, ebay & other sites but can't find ANY 18ct yellow gold Sirius mother of pearl sold before. |

Paul doesnt the pricelist have a 'head only w/ MOP dial' price ? I am too lazy to find my own pricelist ![]() |

The price list I have only shows with strap or bracelet. It does list the 18K Pilot bracelet at $9500 though so you can do the math. |

The question I have I guess is, if Breitling have informed me that there is only 14 of these watches made can one of you aficionados tell me more. The only facts I have from Breitling officials are that this watch is all 100% (strap, movements etc) genuine and only 14 where produced in 1992 anymore information would be brilliant. |

There weren't 14 produced, there were many more. There may only have been 14 with that dial and case combo but so what, what relevance does that have to anything? You've asked for information, you've been given information and your response is always "Breitling says 14 were made can you tell me more" |

I doubt anyone can give you more info than Breitling themselves ? , they have access to the info , we don't ? So if they tell that there we 14 made and sold in this specific combination , I have no reason to doubt them , nor do I have access to their databases to verify their statements |
