Hi, looking across various sites I found quite a few German listings for Breitling vintages. Is that where most of the Breitling collectors are based? Which country has the most Breitling collectors and whats a wild guess figure for the number of vintage Breitling collectors worldwide?

I would not even know where to start.

If it were a list of Bugatti Veyrons (300) then you might start with the manufacturer, as I am sure its an easy database to get stats from (and they probably know where they all are), but as far as where and what numbers of Lings, boy, that’s a tough one.

You could work it out on an educated guess basis, and some very knowledgable memebrs here might have a good idea on this.

Not sure that helps you though.

Jim

I can kinda vouch for the German theory...

I sold two of them to the same guy in Germany... :D

Well German / Belgian / Dutch figures are inflated by one person with several hundred personas :lol:

Inevitably Europe is pretty highly represented as is the US because those were major markets for the pieces originally. No idea how you could ever reliably assess this though.
