I have become slightly concerned with my obsession regarding all the bits and pieces that Breitling produce (although not themselves) as gifts and giveaways.

I have quite a collection - pens, badges, lapel pins, boxes, wallets, caps, lanyards, snow globe, penknives, soap, gloves, lighters, stickers etc etc. - almost too much to list!

I had a quick tot up just out of interest and realised that I'd spent so much on these collectable bits that I would have enough to buy another watch (cash) if I sold it all!

Anyone else out there gone a bit mad with these things?

HELP!

Although I do sell a few bits and pieces on eBay I really have quite a stock of things - about £2k plus :shock: - so think a massive sale could be on the cards.

Maybe have to start deciding which of my shortlist of 3 will be next! :D

I also have a few Breilting items as well. I have 4 hats, a backpack, travel suitcase and I just picked up a factory new black leather and nylon Breitling flight jacket. I have had a few other items but sold them off. But they can add up fast!

Cash in! I've made a few quid selling the Breitling freebies I've recieved. It's all adding up in my Chronomat piggy-bank :D

I've got a couple of hats that I've picked up free from AD events, and I bought a Breitling pen on eBay a couple of years back as it was an absolute bargain, but that's it.

Wouldn't mind see those gloves you mention though Breitling Bloke! Never come across those before....

Mmmmmmmmmmm..............

Sound like I've taken the collecting a bit too far.

I'll stick some pics on when I get home - the gloves are just for handling your watch etc & have Breitling script on them. Could be kinky I guess!

Yes - maybe get a lot of pics and have a grand sale on the for sale forum - then I can choose my next baby.

For me,

The little Breitling additions I have are cherished, I'll not sell them.

I suspect you are the very person who has beaten me on several ebay auctions! Damn your eyes.........

Ooops!!

Tee hee :lol:

Well you may get your chance yet!

As you say there are some bits which I won't get rid of but when I could add my SA, Datora or SOH 46 by selling most of the collection it makes sense.

Maybe just put the stuff on the forum here - why give eBay any more?
