<sigh> Guess I have to merge four threads together then. There is no reason why you can't post pictures in a new reply to this thread, or by editing your original post for that matter. Please don't spam post the forum with multiple new threads on the same topic.

I guess it depends on whether you want to keep or sell after the refurbish. If you want to keep then it perhaps just comes down to personal preference and how much you want to spend on it. If you want to sell then it would be worth doing an ebay search on your watch, filtered for sold listings, to see what sort of price they are fetching, and then factor in the refurbishment cost to see if it would be worthwhile. IMHO I think perhaps not worth it.

depends on how much B is charging you ? anything between 400-600 would be OK IMO

Just get it polished and it will look very nice again, and won't cost an arm and a leg.

Price over here is 295 EUR to get it serviced. Up to you if it's worth it or not.

Prices can be found on Breitling.com
