Hello Everyone,

It is with much regret I offer for your consideration the final piece of my Breitling collection.

It is the "Flagship" Breitling Chronomat B01 LE #1537/2000, produced to commemorate the release of Breitling's first In-house movement, the B01.

As such, it was one of the very few models to feature the Sapphire caseback. There are tons of reviews out there showcasing this beautiful combination of features, colors and textures. Please keep in mind my pics do it absolutely no justice.

Here are a couple of links to many articles out there with much better pics:
http://www.watchtime.com/wristwatch-industry-news/watches/a-new-flagship-the-breitling-chronomat-01-limited-edition/
http://www.worldwatchreview.com/2010/11/05/breitling-chronomat-b01-limited-edition/

It was purchased new from my local AD, I will include the original receipt with sale. As you can see it was purchased on Oct 22, 2011 thus it has the balance of the factory warranty. If you have any concerns with the B01 movement what-so-ever, it is in your best interest to buy this piece now. Simply buy it and promptly send it into Breitling, and they will send it back to you LNIB condition with any issues you have corrected. You will have it LNIB at a fraction of the new price. This piece should hold it's value well over time as it's one of the few models with the Sapphire caseback, and honors both Breitling's Aviation and Diving watch roots. The watch has performed for me flawlessly, and I have tested the Chronography thoroughly.

I will include the pen, as well as the hat Breitling gave me with this piece, both are NIB condition, as well as the cards that accompanied them. I will also include a Wolf Designs 2.7 Roadster single with storage box as pictured, which I have the Ac adaptor, original box and gift bag for. No need to keep the winder with no watches left.

I will also include the extra links that came with the bracelet so it's complete, bezel protector as well.

Finally I will include a couple of the Breitling travel cases I kept in my cars in the event I needed to take my watch off for some reason and keep it safe.

On to the condition of this piece. It was worn sparingly, and never dropped, damaged or anything like that. Thus is has no dents, dings or scratches. It does however have the mandatory hairlines in a couple places, but very few as it's brushed on the majority of the surfaces you expect to get hairlines, thus it is in very good condition. The sapphire is mint, no scratches at all. With a bit of touch ups, this piece would look brand new. It has never been polished or anything, so you can see just how little it has been worn.

In the US, this watch retailed for $8150, and in Canada it was just about $9000. I ask a mere $5250 paypal fee included, shipped and insured for everything as pictured or mentioned.

Here she is pictured with my favourite car of all time I recently sold as well:

Please contact me if you have any questions, I hope someone takes this home who can truly appreciate what a great piece it really is.
