Hello from germany!

I need your help.
I got this Breitling for Bentley form my father.
The beautiful watch is laying in the safe since years now.
Worn only about 10 times. Looks like new.

Bought in the year 2003
Ref. K25362-071

I can´t find the info i need on the internet. Can someone tell me what model it is? Is it a limited one?

What price could i ask for it if i am going to sell? It´s complete with all papers and in the big Box.

Thank you for your help.

Andre

It's a Bentley Motors - http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... ey_17.html

Should be limited to 500 pieces (should be on the back) and pricing advice from the FAQs is to check dealer asking prices on Chrono24 and completed sales on eBay. They come up fairly regularly so you should be able to find some comparables.

Thank you!

I was looking for Bentley model with the REF Number. Most of the look a little bit different.
For example the date is red on my one. Most i see is black.
What is the -071 ..last three signs on the Ref number stay for?

No idea. The full reference translation is here - http://www.breitlingsource.com/articles_refnos.shtml but it doesn't match the format of yours.

The 071 will be the 'Limited Production' number, so to speak. With a limited edition Breitling know how many they will be making so would put 71/500 for example as they plan to build exactly 500 pieces. Others were made without an exact planned production amount so just have the number in order of when it was made. With your watch, they may have made more or less than 500. Probably less.


Breitling Mad.......

All of the gold Bentleys are limited editions - i.e. xx/xx, not special editions which have no fixed production run. The LE number on the back is separated from the model number rather than being part of it.
