Hi all,

I am looking to purchase my first Breitling and I'm nervous!

After looking long and hard, I have finally got myself down to these three:

1. Chrono Galactic A13358L (2013 model, white dial, crocodile bracelet)
2. Montbrilliant A41330 (2008 model, calf-black bracelet)
3. Montbrilliant Legende (2008 model, stainless steel bracelet)

Both Montbrilliant are pre-owned and being sold by a reputable dealer. A41330 has no paperwork but the other two have it.

Which of these watches will keep a good resell value? I would buy all three if I could but right now, one of the above will have to do.

Your advise would be appreciated.

If resale value matters then buy one of the used ones, most of the depreciation hit will have been taken. Those are very different models in terms of size and / or look so buy the one that you like the most - and I would try and try them on first - you have a 38mm and a 47mm watch on that list - those are going to look vastly different on the wrist.

I just got back from an AD in central london. Looks like I have to go with the 38mm, the legende just took over my wrist!! It's massive. Lovely watch though.

Well I had a look at the Chrono Galactic and it just looked too small for my wrist. While browsing the shop I did come across this beauty and just had to have it, I think it fits nicely on my wrist!

My first Breitling :D

Great choice!

Can't go wrong with a Chronomat, it's one of Brietling's all time classics!!!

Thank you all!

I particularly like the bracelet, really does have a snug fit around my wrist. Feels very comfortable to wear throughout the day!
