Whilst browsing the window of a local watch dealer I came upon the following Breitling Chronograph that I hope some member can give me more detailed information on.

The watch is a Breitling Blackbird Chronograph in brushed aluminum with a diamond bezel consisting of a total of 38 (approximately 20 point) alternating blue and white diamonds.

Is anyone familiar with such a model.

Would anyone know the approximate wholesale and retail value of the watch.

It appears to be in excellent condition, though I didn't actually stop in the store and give it a personal once over.

Any information as to model number, year of manufacture, rarity and value would be greatly appreciated.

Again, hello everyone. And thank you for your assistance.

Very truly yours,

Enrico

The Blackbird is a great watch but you are prob at the wrong place to get info on the diamond bezel

:welcome:

I'm pretty certain that Breitling never made a factory bezel with the diamonds you mention so it will have been customised by a jeweller. Could be any age and any value. Sorry I can't be more help.

Welcome to BreitlingSource.

As others have said, that's a non Breitling bezel so has been customized by someone.
