I am new to the forum, and I already appreciate all the help you guys have given me. I was pretty close to buying a fake Navitimer on eBay, but you quickly told me it was a fake, and it now unlisted on eBay. Thank you!!

I am going to be Las Vegas in August and was wondering if anyone has experience buying watches at the ASD/AMD Jewelry Show at the Mirage. There are many exhibitors there and thought if anyone can recommend a particular person.

Sorry for so many questions but, how much does a standard Navitimer go for from an AD. And does anyone recommend a particular eBay lister or online retailer?

Thanks again for all your help..I hope to be a Breitling owner soon!!!

I just asked in your thread in the replica section which Navitimer you meant, I guess from this you mean the regular Navi.

I don't have a full revised price list since the increases a couple of months back, but according to what I have US list for steel is $6,425 on the Navitimer bracelet, $5,745 on croc with deployant, $5,505 on croc with tang, $5,425 on calf with deployant and and $5,205 on calf with tang.

Take a look in the feedback section for information on online dealers - Jomashop, PrestigeTime and InterWatches seem to be the most preferred, though take note of the many discussions about serial numbers and warranty.

Others may have specific recommendations on eBay sellers, but the only one that I would unreservedly recommend is jmryshi.

I paid £3,050 GBP here in the UK for a Navitimer on Black Croc Deployant strap from an AD before the recent price increase.

Not sure about that show but I stayed in the Mirage a couple of years ago and there is a Breitling dealer located in the back of the casino near the elevators to the rooms. They had a big selection at that time.

I think the UK/European members in particular should consider a trip to Basel World 2009.

If anyone's interested I can advise on where to stay etc but you would need to book early.

Just a thought - a few members on the forum (myself included) have been and would give it a big :thumbsup:

Any thoughts?

That said of course - a group visit to the US may not be a bad idea - GBP to US$ being what it is!

I was at the Mirage in August and that was right before they were going to remodel their watch store. At that time, the selection of breitlings was pretty small, but they mostly had models from the Navitimer series. That was a year ago though so I'm sure a lot has changed. There are a ton of ADs in Vegas, but I've said before, I would guess discounts would be hard to come by in such a huge tourist attraction.

I agree to an extent, though you also have to look at the location differently. The AD's in the high dollar areas around here don't want to deal as much as the ones off the beaten path. Though one in a good mall with tons of traffic has a great selection, they also have high rent and operating costs.

Either way, they will vary from AD to AD. Ask for a third off and see if they call security :wink:

I was hoping if anyone has purchased a Breitling from a Jewelry exhibit. There is a very large one at the Sands or the Mirage this coming month. I don't believe these people are AD's they mostly pre-owened or custom jewelry. Thanks
