Breitling Preliminary Assessment
Sell Your Breitling in Istanbul
To sell, trade or consign a Breitling, share its reference, condition, warranty, box and photographs through the watch assessment form. The ART Jewellery & Watches team reviews the Navitimer, Chronomat, Superocean and other Breitling models and, where appropriate, arranges an appointment at Zorlu Center, Istanbul.
Reference and Calibre
Breitling references combine letters and numbers; AB0138, for example, is a Navitimer B01 Chronograph reference. The reference appears on the warranty. If you know the calibre, include it, as the same collection has used both in-house calibres such as the B01 and sourced movements.
Papers and Model-Specific Parts
A paper or digital warranty, box, proof of purchase and service records make the assessment easier. The condition of model-specific parts, such as the Navitimer's rotating slide-rule bezel or the Chronomat's rouleaux bracelet, should be clearly visible in the photographs.
Sale, Trade and Consignment
The suitable route depends on the reference, condition, set, whether the chronograph functions work and market demand. Submitting the form does not create an offer or a commitment to purchase. Final terms are agreed only after the watch has been examined at Zorlu Center.
Breitling Selling FAQ
Can I sell a Breitling whose chronograph does not work?
It can still be assessed. Describe the fault in the form; the cost of any required service is reflected in the assessment after physical inspection.
My Breitling has no box. Is that a problem?
The watch can be assessed without the box. The box and papers complete the set, and missing items are taken into account.
Why does service history matter for my Breitling?
The last service date and the work carried out show the watch's mechanical condition. If you have service documents, mention them in the form or bring them to the appointment.
Can I trade in my Breitling?
You can select trade-in on the form. Suitability depends on the watch offered and the current availability of the piece you want.
