Hi all,
A friend of mine went skiing along with his navitimer patrouille de France.
The result being the watch has changed color!
I know for sure it is an original breitling since I was the first owner of that watch.
The dial as turned from blue to that maroon color pictured bellow.
Below is not a picture of my friend's watch but a picture I found on this website. My friend's watch has now the very same color as the one on that picture.
My question is;
How can the color turn from blue to bronze? and would you have any idea on how much it might cost to repair?
The watch will go back to Breitling and I have advised my friend to stop skiing with any expensive watch and wear a regular swatch instead.
That's a peculiar effect and not something I'd have expected from extreme cold. I've heard (and seen pictures) of colour changes due to moisture but not that. Very bizarre.
