Hi All I have just been given a Breitling stopwatch. The model number is 4408 (from the Breitling sticker on the back) but on the front in just says 'Sprintimer'. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance, Mike |

Not sure exactly what the question is - I'm not familiar with the 4408 but generally the Sprint stopwatches are from the early 70s with either round metal cases or black slowly ovoid cases. They aren't worth much - Old World is selling them NOS for $140. As Driver8 says, photos will help. |

Looks NOS - do you know if it's one of Old World's? Clearly just a dial variation on the ovoid cased ones, slightly unusual to see it branded as a Sprintimer rather than just Sprint, but there just isn't much market for these. Personally, I like them as a piece of 70s Breitling history. |

No, I don't think its NOS because it has some slight wear. I do like the colour & shape of the watch though! Thanks for your reply! Mike |
