Looking at buying my first Breitling. Wondering what this is worth used... I think $4500?

Great site. Thanks everyone.

Standard pricing advice is in the FAQs, #2 here - http://www.breitlingsource.com/articles_faq.shtml#8

For this specific piece, it's worth running away from in my opinion. The only picture is a stock shot so the likelihood of getting a real watch is remote!

I just picked mine up a few weeks ago for $4k. Superb condition on a bracelet.

Thanks all. I asked the seller about authenticity and included items and they said:

"Hello, we guarentee this watch to be 100% authentic, and would provide that in writing. Additionally, when the watch is sent to Breitling for service, the paperwork and warranty will serve as additional verification.
All photos are of the actual watch for sale, we do not use stock photos at all.
We do not have any boxes or paperwork, although the original warranty would probably be expired anyway.

Thank you for your interest!
"




Doesn't paypal offer the buyer protection against fake merch? I heard that if you pay with PayPal, and the item turns out to be fake, as long as you return the item to the seller Paypal will force a refund. Anyone with experience using that?


I really appreciate all the help!

Plenty of discussions about PayPal - pros and cons here, but this isn't a particularly hard to find watch so personally I would wait for a more reliable seller with better photos.
