Hey all.

I hope this is in the correct area as it is a Breitling Discussion, and I didn't see any specific place for a question like this.

I have a SOH38. I purchased it second hand, and while everything on the surface seems genuine, I won't be satisfied until I can see and photo the movement.

Problem is, all of my usual caseback opening techniques are failing me and I can't get the back unscrewed....

Does anyone know of a place locally in the Fort Lauderdale/West Palm areas, that has the proper dies and would open her up for me for maybe a small fee?

Or, does anyone have the dies? The SOH38 is A37320 so it uses the 15-400 die (33.5mm)

Thank you for the help. I know it may be a strange request.

There is no good fake of your watch, it's real. If you open the case you compromise the cleanliness of the movement and it will need servicing. I highly doubt any AD with the dies would agree to do it without the service.

Take it to Swiss Watch Service in Miami. They are one of the few Breitling Authorized service centers in the country outside of BUSA in CT.
