Why no Breitling Chronomat B01 available at TD's?

Recommended Posts

bgreg

Where can I find this watch? I rarely see any for sale on M2M. I know it is not considered a super rep by many, but I really like it, especially with white dial. What are your thoughts, What are the glaring flaws on this rep model. I've read that the V1 is better than the V3. Opinions and thoughts. I would really appreciate any and all input. Anybody no where I can find one. I have asked several TD's and they just say it is not available.

 

Thanks

It's discontinued, I believe. Reps tend to be produced in limited batches and once they're gone, they're gone. If there's enough demand, the makers may produce another version - we'll have to see.

Agree!... Took me a while to find a SO Abyss and it was out of stock at all TDs. Finally managed to find one across the world when I put a WTB request.

Interestingly, I almost put my B01 on sale yesterday ...would have surely regretted that!!!

I sent email to 6 different dealers yesterday and 2 responded that they can get one....I'll have to see what they can come up with. One says He can get the "Noob Ultimate" version. Anybody know about flaws on that watch, I know the recessed date wheel is a given anything else I should look for..

I got a quartz version, sold it and planned to get some 7750 version but ended up with the polished Blackbird instead. Does the job for me.

Ok thanks guys, ive heard back from couple more dealers who can get them...some say only with leather or rubber. I will check on the certifi spelling on caseback, I remember heading about that. Thanks for the reminder.

Is the white dial close to gen in color?

trusty seems to have them in stock

As you will learn youngster, just because a website says it's in stock, doesn't actually mean that it's in stock, or even available to order.
