The MOP dials are nice but I'd pass on the diamonds

Resale is 35% of retail. Their vintage pieces are amazing, but they're
Missing the abc's of brand control.

Haven't bought a Breitling in many years... What are they going for (%) now as NIB & LNIB?

On that B01 in SS I would want at least 30-35% off for BNIB, then I think you have a very good deal and so just much watch for the money. And no major loss on resale.

Navitimer 1461 is a gorgeous piece, though I wish there were more Navitimer 01 Blue Sky available.

The new TransOcean Chrono GMT Ltd is amazing, a wonderful combination of new tech and beautiful styling.

Even the new Bentley's aren't bad, though I prefer the Motors T with the limited Carbon Fiber dial.

I often see nib / Lnib trading at 35-40% of msrp (not off, of)

Very nice!

Such a under priced brand.

I agree! With their new in-house movements, their embrace of their heritage, I think they are understated in modern horology. My only complaint is huge size of their in house movement cases. I really wanted the Unitime, and LOVE the Bentley Unitime, but at 49 mm they are SO BIG!

I seriously think the GMT picked me. And it's one of 2000, (like that means something )

Not really warming to the newer Chronomat bezel. Although just noticed the case is now designed to be used with both bracelet and strap, so you can give yourself a bit of variety.

Well, they've discontinued some pretty amazing pieces. Does that count?
