Hi Everyone, Just purchased my second Breitling an emergency mission. Whats the latest regarding the production of this watch is it going to cease? Anyway I love it! Bought a Bell and Ross BR01-94 Ltd edition on tuesday so it's been busy on the watch front.
Opinions welcome :lingsrock:

Congratulations - does sound like a good week.

The Emergency Mission has indeed been discontinued in 2009, with no replacement yet announced - although Basel is less than 2 weeks away now so there may be an announcement there.

I would say, depending on how much you use the cronograph, 2-3 years. Breitling wants to service it every 2 years due to the dassault-transmitter. The cost for that is between 400 to 600$ depending on parts that needs to be exchanged.

Breitling's spec for battery life is 2 - 3 years. And remember that the first service from new on Emergencies is free.

For the EM, the first service is free of charge.
Mine went for 2 years service at Christmas, came back absolutely brand new.
Not sure how much a normal battery change costs....

Best wishes,


Verner
