The Breitling Watch Source Forums

EDIT - March 15 2012 - My tame jeweller has found another 4 of these in a dark corner of his storeroom! All Mint, NOS, with backcase sticker and hangtag. Only one is boxed, the others in plastic slips. New Renata batteries fitted yesterday, and all functions working perfectly. A PDF File with the Instruction Manual will be provided to buyers (you'll need it...!).

I had some follow up enquiries for 3 of these from my previous Sales post, and those members have been offered first dibs by PM, but if you'd be interested, drop me a PM and I'll sort out who gets what. Bargain price is unchanged from previous

I've some NOS vintage watches from a batch that I picked up recently... I sold one of these to a TZ member back in June, and my little man has dug out another 3 from his stockroom.

They are the Accurist 'Count Down' MB388B Dual Display Ana-Digi Chronograph Alarm, mint in box with Tags and PDF Instruction Manual.

I can't find any details on this model, except that it's the Miyota T241 movement. If in line with the other watches I picked up at the time, it's from the late 1980's/early 90's (unless anyone out there knows better?).

It's got a combination Analogue/Dual Digital Display, Chronograph, Alarm, Hourly Chime, a Countdown feature, Day/Date/Month Calendar, Dual Time facility (Analogue and Digital time can be set seperately). Everything works as it should. I've fitted new batteries this week.

It's on its original full sized bracelet (loose on me and I'm an 8").

Measures: 39mm without crown, 44mm Lug to Lug, 11.5mm thick, weighs in at 113grams.

Any marks will be on backcase where I've fitted new batteries, and will be minimal - otherwise these are totally mint.

The pics tell the rest of the story..

The watch, case and bracelet:










Mint, in Boxes, with hang-tags:






2 of the 3 still have the backcase stickers:




If I've missed anything, please ask.

The price on the hang tag is £79.90 (from 20+ years ago!). Hard to price now, but Accurist Ana-Digis seem to go for around £90-£120 nowadays. I'll let these New, Old Stock models go for £65 NOW £60, including signed-for UK Delivery. Add a £5 if you're overseas.

I've plenty of refs on here, loads on TZ-UK (username BigBird), and I'm 1900+, 99.99% Top Rated on the 'bay (username 'goonermike').

BT preferred; I'm happy to take PayPal, but not PP Gifts (I use PP for business and they don't like to see gifts on a business account), so please add 3% to the total if you want to use PayPal. I'll provide a PP 'Invoice' if you'd prefer.

Cheers
Mike

All these went in August last year. I'll ask my little man if he's got any more hidden away in his stockroom, and let you know if so.
