First time I use Bloombar watches to sell a watch and as all other reviews attest, everything was great and would highly recommend without hesitation. Quick email replies, good knowledge, very fair pricing and money wired to my account before I left. Add to that just lovely team/people to deal with. Will be on my list of people to use for next purchase and sale.

Great experience from start to finish! Found Bloombar via a social media post and was hesitant at first to deal with a company in this way but so glad I did. The watch was presented in mint condition and a visit to their London office sealed the deal. Everyone at Bloombar knows their stuff and if you have questions or concerns, you can discuss them with experts. Will definitely return when next looking to buy.

Flawless. Really satisfying to find a business that truly looks after you and has the patience to work with you to get exactly what you are looking for. Sam was brilliant.
The aftersales service (to adjust the strap and demonstrate how the watch functions work) has also been exemplary
There really is no other place to buy a watch.

How Much Is My Breitling Worth?

Breitling watches have been at the top of collector lists for 130 years. Each model holds a unique value and details such as bezels and rare details should not be overlooked.

To determine the true value of your Breitling, our skilled team will inspect it for condition, age and specific details. Factors such as recent auction sale prices and external economic factors also play a role when valuing a watch.

Notable Breitling models
We buy all models Breitling, both current and vintage. Here are some of the most commonly traded Breitling models:
Navitimer

Breitling’s flagship watch is an easily recognisable classic. The Navitimer features a unique slide rule and bi-directional bezel, essential for making calculations on the fly by pilots of the past. Decades on from its 1952 release, the Navitimer now includes Breitling’s in-house automatic chronograph movement in a 43mm size.

Chronomat

The Chronomat was originally released in 1984 but was reintroduced in 2020. Its eye-catching rouleaux bracelet is featured alongside rider tabs, rounded pushes and crown. Notably, the ’00s Chronomat is worn by Tom Cruise.

Avenger

The Avenger collection is considered a field and dive watch but with a unique luxury Breitling design. Robust and large, various models are available including the Avenger Automatic Seawolf with a lightweight titanium case offsetting the heavy-duty mechanical movement.

Top Time

Breitling Top Time watches were launched back in the 1960s but were reissued in recent years. Taking a turn from aviation to cars, each chronograph Top Time model references a unique classic car; including the Ford Mustang, Shelby Cobra and Chevrolet Corvette. As with all modern Breitlings, they feature the in-house movement.

Premier

The Premier collection revived Breitling’s heritage with its high-end offerings of split-second chronographs, moon phases and tourbillons. Brad Pitt is known for wearing the Premier B01 Chronograph Norton with stainless steel cases, white subdials and subtle gold Arabic numerals.

Superocean

One of Breitling’s most popular lines, the Superocean continues the company’s strong history in dive watches with a modern twist. Offering seven dial colours and five sizes (from 36 to 48mm), it’s become a versatile sports watch inspired by the original 1950s predecessor.

Professional

Focusing primarily on function, the Professional collection is a robust and eye-catching instrument. The Professional is available in a range of colours, with an ultra-light Breitlight case and Caliber 82, COSC-certified SuperQuartz chronograph.

Superocean Heritage

The Superocean Heritage offers a taste of nostalgia, as it takes on the look of a 1950 Breitling Superocean with a mesh bracelet. Designed for professional divers, Breitling manages to keep it simple. It also features a robust COSC-certified B20 (Tudor MT5612) movement with a 70-hour power reserve.

Emergency

Large enough to fit a personal locator beacon, the Emergency is fit for all purposes even in the most dire of circumstances. Developed in collaboration with major scientific institutes, it houses a rechargeable battery, dual-frequency transmitter and integrated antenna system.
