Was this just perception or has Breitling decreased in popularity over the years?
Hi @Jimstark, and welcome to the forum. I guess the answer is: it depends where you have been hanging out? Breitling is still a very popular brand, especially amongst a certain range of collectors. This forum is a little quiet these days, but if you join some of the Facebook groups and look through Instagram, you'll see very active support for Breitling. The other issue could be that the new management is trying to move the brand somewhat more up-market, and that might mean some of the older sales channels where you previous saw Breitling have dried up a little, in favour of new Breitling boutiques.
