a like new M1 blue dial w/ silver subs on rubber

The M1 was never a very popular watch, hence why it was discontinued last year. Since that announcement though it seems to have developed a bit of a cult following.

Price seems reasonable depending on age / how close to servicing it is (though others can probably give you a better idea as I'm not that close to this watch), and if you don't like it there shouldn't be any problem selling it - although whether you get all of your money back is of course debatable.

It's not for me because it's quartz, but if that doesn't bother you then get it while you can.

I really like my M1. I have the blue face on Titanium band. I also have a Blue Rubber Band also. Sounds like an okay deal if it is in good shape. I have no idea about the return policy from whoever you are buying it from. You should ask them before you purchase it. Good luck.

it is a dealer that has it but it was a trade-in from a collector and
looks pretty much new and unworn.

I asked about service and he said he'd be happy to have one of his qualified watchmakers
service (battery, seal and pressure test) the watch at no extra charge.

so, good deal?

sure sounds like it.

The M1 is a uber nice Breitling
I had one the only thing you have to check when did the m1 had his last service (battery)
because a battery must been replaced with 2 to 3 years ...

I like the Breitling M1 the price is okay a little high..but you said its like new

Good luck m8 with buying a M1
