Breitling Transocean Chronograph question

Anyone have any thoughts on the Transocean Chronograph in 18kt red gold? My AD got one shipped to them and they are looking to unload it at a 30% discount.... I am considering it, but not 100% sure....

Even at 30% off, there are still other watches I'd buy in that price range. Unless you really love, I'd pass on it.

I've tried one of those on at my AD and they're nice! If you like it, buy it. 30% off is a good deal, but don't just buy it for the discount. As Justin noted above, there are many other watches in that price range.

The problem is I don't know if I love the watch, maybe the discount is enticing me???

Hi MoosicPa,

I hope you don't mind the question, but what price for the Transocean after discount?

Thanks

Con

That is alot of money to spend on a watch that you do not love.

Forget the discount, do you like the watch on your wrist?

Sorry to butt in. I'm fairly new on the forums. That seems like a great price on that watch. Is the AD going out of business or do you just have a good repoire with them?

I would never spend that much on a breitling, but that's just my opinion. Too many other options in that range.
