Post subject: | requesting input on Superocean 2105 |
Good Evening, I am new to old watches and appear to have found myself in dangerous waters. I posted an introduction and was encouraged to post anything that I'm considering buying before committing to it. Until a few days ago, I was blissfully unaware of the SuperOcean 2105. Having seen a photo of one, I am afraid that I need one. I have found this one for sale and have requested a few photos of the movement from the seller. I'd welcome any feedback on this watch http://www.ebay.com/itm/Breitling-Vinta ... 2159840595 Thank you, david |

lovely and rare piece in excellent condition. needs a decent strap, faux crox doesn't do that watch justice, but that's the only issue I see. tan/brown calf or mesh work well on the 2105 |

stunning example you'd be hard pressed to find a better one ! price seems to be a little on the optimistic side but given the rarity and condition it doesnt surprise me if it speaks to you , why not ? disclaimer : I dont know the seller nor have I had any dealings with him |

A while back there was a collection of NOS Breitlings being offered by a jewelry store on EBAY for $125,000. I believe it included about 20 or so watches and the same number of stopwatches. Does anybody know if this the same seller? |

As Roff would say use the search feature, so I did and here is the topic, viewtopic.php?f=11&t=56472, and yes the same seller! |

Thanks for the thoughts. I pulled the trigger on it and will now be looking for a mesh bracelet to put on it. |

yes, these are a decent fit ![]() cingrats, think the price was quite reasonable for the condition, actually. make sure to get a correct OEM mesh for the SOC, worth it ![]() |

I am excited about getting it. Because I asked for photos of the movement and then decided to buy it, I have delayed the shipping by a few days. Is this an appropriate bracelet for it? http://www.authenticwatches.com/breitli ... 4abRlL6u9I |

Ok, I have to quit looking at this site, I am out of money. Joking aside, I appreciate everyone's input and commentary and am looking forward to my new old watch. My wife asked me if I was now going to chase watches like I do knives and guns, and I had to reassure her that I'm not. We'll see. I might have some knives and guns for sale.... |
