Yes Breitling can re-case a watch for you. I don't know how much it would be, but you can bet it won't be cheap! However, depending on how bad your dings are, that may not be your only option : Breitling can do a hell of a lot to repair damaged cases including (apparently) removing dings. The best bet will be to call Breitling UK and just ask the question. Their Customer Service Dept is excellent, and they will also be able to quote you for a re-case too. Good luck.

Driver is correct. Breitling can do some amazing work on cases. As long as the dings aren't serious, they can make it look 100x better.

A re-case overall is going to be very pricey. If the dings are serious enough to call for a complete re-casing I'd almost suggest keeping the one you have as a beater and purchasing a new ling to keep in the watch box and only take out for special occasions (dress up, dinner, etc).

I'm a firm believer that you should always look for a reason to purchase a new watch

yes, a 2nd watch would be a good idea, and an excuse to buy another Breitling

it's an excuse for a new watch

besides sending it in for repair would mean you are without it for weeks
