The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Hi All

I'm new to this forum but have been an member of other watch forums and am proud to be a 100% ebayer!
For Sale or Trade is my Breitling Superocean Steelfish A17390 2007 and a little bit about it below...

This automatic Breitling model, which incorporates the Breitling 17 Movement dates from November 2007, and is the larger 44mm case (previously called the X-Plus, to differentiate it from the earlier 42mm version), chronometre certified of course, and rated at an official depth rating of 2000m (6600 feet).





These are rare to find in this good condition, I searched for ages to get one this good and then something else comes up !!! It comes as a complete full set, triple-boxed (including mint unbroken Bakelite box), with a COSC certificate, stamped and dated warranty card, the User Manual, and the document wallet. All of this is again in mint condition. It was serviced sometime in early 2012, but I don't have any supporting documentation. The buyer will also get email confirmation from Breitling UK that this genuine watch is not on their lost or stolen register.

CONDITION REPORT:
Measurements: Width (without Crown): 44mm. Thickness: 16.1mm. Lug-to-lug: 52mm. Lug Width 22mm. Weight 145 grams

Crystal: The slightly domed Sapphire Crystal is in immaculate condition, as is the anti-reflective coating, with no scratches

Dial: Silver/White Dial, with 'Guilloche' concentric circles, which accentuates the metallic finish. Large applied steel Arabic numbers at 12, 6 and 9. Applied steel circle markers, lume filled, for other numbers. Applied Breitling Wings Logo in steel. Minute Marker Track to outer of dial, 24 hour clock indicators to innner. Perfect condition, displaying good lume.

Case: The case is a classic diver-style, with satin-brushed finish to the steel on the top surfaces, and a mirror-polish to the sides and underside. Overalll condition is excellent, with no scratches to speak of.

Caseback: The caseback is a 15-sided screwback type, in polished steel. Markings are clear, including Model and Serial numbers.

Bezel: There is a uni-directional steel bezel, in a brushed finish, which rotates fully in crisp 'clicks', is engraved with relevant increments (numbered 0-55 with minute markers). Raised 'riders' at the quarters, including lumed 'pip' at 12. All in excellent condition.

Crown: Original large Screw-Down ridged-edge steel crown, clear 'B' signed. Excellent, and works perfectly. Movement/Running: I had my watchmaker inspect and regulate this right at the end of December. The Breitling-signed 17 Calibre movement (modified ETA 2824.2 base) is in excellent order, and running well, with a strong. Timekeeping is pretty much spot on, running at +4 spd when timed

Strap: The watch is mounted on an genuine Breitling 22-20 Black Hide strap, with Ivory stitching, and fixed and floating keepers. Very lightly used, the strap is in super condition - there's a little stretching to the second shortest hole, and similar to the second longest, and some very minor creasing, showing on the underside. There's very slight creasing to the area around the holes on the upper visible side, but it's very minimal. The Breitling buckle is the new 'raised logo' style tang type, and is in the satin-brushed finish. Super condition, I can't see a mark on it.





I have other pictures but need to resize them as they wont upload...


This is a superb example which would really be good enough to give as a special gift. Of course the watch is 6 years old now but I think it would pass for a 6 month old watch. I am that confident that the buyer will be happy that if the watch arrives and you are not 100% satisfied you can return it to me no questions or obligation… I would much prefer the sale to be face to face so that the buyer can satisfy themselves but I understand that not every has the time to travel. I am happy to post and the buyer will get a text upon postage with a tracking number as this will be sent by royal mail special delivery and insured up to £2500.

Sorry but this is a UK Sale only.

Any questions please contact me on 07429120096 Many thanks Mark
