I've seen one of these before on here and a few on the bay but I was never able to land one until today. This one is in great condition and is 99% complete. It's missing the black swiss army knife which I will have next week to complete the package. It's a pretty cool kit, this was given out to AD's a few years ago and includes a few useful watch tools. Take a look.

**Update** I found the black Swiss army knife that belongs to this kit, it is now 100% complete. What a find!!!!

Some pretty cool tools there. Can any be purchased individually? I like the one that compressed both sides of the spring bar at the same time. It would really help me out the times where the seated side of the spring bar pops out as i'm trying to the the other side in. So frustrating-- thank goodness for masking tape.

You can purchase just about every Bergeon item in the kit from ofrei....it won't be painted with Breitlings logo but that's not a big deal for most people.

That's a great find. I don't even know what all those tools are for! . . . but I still want one of those kits.

Except the one they have that Pete is referring to cost about $300 - I was looking at it during my Type XXI bracelet/strap changing woes.

Absolutely terrific pick up Sergio!

Glad to see you finally got it. You're gonna be a strap changing fool now.

For $300 I'll do it the hard way.

Loctite is an adhesive used on the threads of the bracelet screws to secure them in place and prevent them from becoming loose over time.
