I have a chrono matic breitling model 2110 that has been identified as requiring a new gear wheel inside. i have been quoted around 500 pounds for the watch repairing but i am considering selling the watch. could someone please help me value the watch. it has no strap but is in fairly good condition.

many thanks

charlie.

GBP500 for a gear wheel is a ripoff. Even if the watch is getting a full service and the wheel is being fabricated it shouldn't be more than half of that, likely less. A member here chronodeco (Craig) may be able to help you out with a much better price.

I would like to see photos before commenting on value, including movement pictures as there were different variations.

yeah for a gear wheel 500 pounds is a bit excessive... even though parts for these caliber 11's are difficult to come by... that's like over a 1K in USD? :shock:

I assume since you're mentioning pounds you're somewhere in the UK? Did BUK quote you this?

As they say... if the belly button is bigger than the belly... :roll:

If you're really serious about fixing it, then I'll second Craig (chronodeco) here in the states...
