Hi!

I am watchmaker in Finland, and now and then we buy old watchmaker or jewelery store stocks and tools.
I found this old shoe box full with Breitling plexi glasses and bezels.
For example ref, 1809, 2018, 7652, 1806, 818 etc.
Can anybody help me understand who might be interested in things like this?

Br Antti

There's quite a demand for most of what you listed. Probably you'll get contacted privately to purchase some or all of what you have. I'd say put it on Ebay and give everyone a chance to purchase. I also think you'll get your best price online as the market finds it's own level for hard to find pieces.

+1.

The PM offers will be people looking to pay less by avoiding a public sale, never good for the seller.

Crystals for vintage Breitlings are not really hard to find items , for most of them you just need to have the correct dimensions and drag the Sternkreuz catalog .
Original crystals are quite rarer but most of people are not ready to pay much for such parts ... because imho the main difference btw a new Crystal and a 50 years old Crystal is possible ageing of the original .
It dépends if you want to sell the complete batch in one time , or if you are ready to sell part by part either on eBay or on another place .
On BS we have a Buy and Sell section that you could use . If you offer them at realistic price you will sell many here. Just put an information in the vintage section with the link to your for sale offer .
