After enjoying my Superavenger for two months, i bought a used Colt Ocean to my girlfriend.
There were no box or paper included so i got a good prize. I found out by reading the number s1399
on the second bracelet link, that the watch is produced in 1999. (anyone agree)?
But can anyone tell me the production period for this Colt Ocean 500m watch with
Ref A64350
The bracelet is Fighter 824 A

I believe that with that ref it's a Colt Quartz which was produced from 1995-2001 and not a Colt Oceane

It is a Colt Ocean made between 2000-2001.

Only, based on the info given by the OP, this one was made around April (week 13) 1999.

This model first appeared in the 1999 catalogue which normaly comes out in November 1998, so it may be 1999-2001. It could have been sold up to 5 years or more later. It's in the 1999,2000,2001 catalogue. The bracelet may not be from the watch, as sold. I'm not sure about when the 3 (COSC) in the model number was first used. April 2000 is the earliest i've seen.

99% sure that it's not a 1999 watch with a COSC reference number.

Just because the bracelet was made at the end of March 99 doesn't mean that the watch was.

Yep and the ref gave by the OP is clearly mentioned in the link I gave above.

Admin grouped it under the regular Colt because of common reference numbers between them - http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... e_106.html

Ok I have seen that one, but it is not the same dial as mine. On mine you can read Colt Ocean. But every other details on the watch on your link look similar to mine.
