Post subject: | Late Model Pluton Advice |
I have a chance to pic up a late model (~1994) from a reputable local watch dealer for ~$900. He says it has just been serviced and it appears to be in good shape from the hi res pictures he has (he rates it near mint). What do you guys think of these Plutons? Would a late model metal or rubber bracelet fit, I'm not much for leather. Thanks for the help, DN |

Love the watches but $900 is top dollar for these models, Even if its complete with box and papers, Its quite hard to get spare movements for them (i do have one currently) ?But if you like the watch go for it.They are 20mm lugs so most 20mm straps will fit and the Pro One bracelett |

Thanks for the info. This piece does not come with box and papers, so I'm guessing it is priced too high... Also, you said the movements are hard to find- does Breitling still service these pieces? |

I think I'll probably pass then... The watch is for sale at The Watchseller if anyone wants to take a look at it and let me know what you think. |
