Breitling chrono super ocean appraisal
Hello everyone. My dad received a new Breitling chronometre super ocean last november for his retirement from his employer. The watch came with box only and has no owners manual or papers. The watch is brand new and has never been worn. I took it to a local jewelry mart and I wanted to see how much it was worth. They offered me $1600. She said that's the best she can do because of no papers.
My question is this a fair offer? Should I keep the watch and try to get papers for it, (if possible)? Should I try a Breitling distributor? I'm in the Chicago area and this was the only person who seen the watch and quoted me a price. Any other good places I can take the watch to have appraised? Thank you for any help. |

Morgan,
Used Superocean Chrono's in mint condition with all boxes and goodies from the AD typically fetch between $1750 and $1950 on the watch sale forums, give or take a little. SO all in all, the dealer's offer is not that far off the mark. That is one of my favorte Breitlings, the Superocean Chrono. Regards, Jim
