Hi everyone,
I'm seriously considering selling my Emergency. It just does not make it into my rotation enough. Any thoughts/suggestions?

From a guy who's sold several discontinued, and now highly sought after watches from his own collection...you might regret it. If you don't need the funds I'd say keep it.

I think you make a great point. No I'm fortunate enough not to need the funds right now. I'll take your advise and keep it.

Thanks,

Has it been serviced?

How much?

I looked at the new ones but could not justify price.

Sold mine a few years back and no regrets.

Haven't decided on a price if I decide to sell. It bought from the big 'T' a couple of years ago. Battery is good and have all documents and packaging.
PM if you want to talk about it more.

Thanks,

Al1969;
PM me if you're considering selling your E. I tried to PM you but didn't work, seemed blocked!?
Thanks.

if it doesn't make it into the rotation sell it....Think of it this way, the new owner will be delighted to have it and may actually wear it

I haven't read a lot of articles that Breitlings go up in value all that much. Maybe perhaps for the Navitimer and icons like that. Im with the crowd that if you don't wear it, sell it. You never know when you might get that itch again for something new and there will be room in your rotation for it.

Never seen one of these in the wild. Crazy looking watch imo.

Dump it like the gaudy monstrosity it is. There are probably fewer than 1000 people who actually could benefit from this watch, the rest are wannabe posers... which is probably why you never wear it.

Al1969 · 24 September 2013, 01:30 PM

Sold it and got a Pam 24 in its place.

43builder · 24 September 2013, 01:43 PM

sold mine a year or so ago - and now i miss it! - just bought a 116610LV today so no complaints though.

i would say like others have, if you can afford to keep it, i would

Launch it

Al, where did this get sold? Just wondering if I bought this watch. I bought mine in October.
