I agree Sonyman, winning the lottery would be great!

They recently sent out an email regarding the large stock of used pieces they had accumulated, didn't get the list though :? Were they out on display? Did it look there quite a few used ones?

Really need to make a trip there myself soon.

sounds kinda dumb to not display all the used models. Shopping for watches is a visual experience and a lot of watches are bought on impulse

I guess his main focus is new and thats what he wants to promote, If you have the second hand ones out then people will head for that display when if theres only new then they will look at those.

If I ever get to the UK, I'll definitely pay Andrew a visit, and check out his legendary stock of Breitling watches. Recently, I've started wondering just what NOS models does he currently have on stock, and whether if it would be possible to see a complete list of NOS pieces he has for sale. Andrew helped me out with a NOS B-1, 3 years after its production ceased, so I assume he may still have some 44mm Chrono-Matics, Headwinds, 42mm Steelfishes or other precious items in his drawers...

He had just sold this which is a shame as I wanted to try it on.
