Lovely Ling Folks,

You may remember that I was being drawn to the Breitling Blackbird (Original) (the Montbrillant Datora will quite possibly now have to wait for later), I've come across this baby, just wondering if you feel its the real deal and if so, is it value for money? How would the notification to Breitling of change of ownership work, would the seller have the form or would I need to contact Breitling direct?

If purchased, with what seems from the photographs are papers, will Breitling be happy to carry out that bi-annual health check?

Many thanks. Michael.

Don't know what that is. However, i came across this other thread which seemed more promising.
Its with a touch of irony, just picked up from a later response the cap sold it for $1700! Missed it by a whisker : ( :lingsrock:

The watch is genuine but there are no papers on the photos.
Slide rule instructions doesn't go with that watch.

Your better off buying from a trusted on a trusted site. Make sure all the paperwork is present and matching.

Superocean Chronos are nice watches :wink:
