Grabbed a new old stock BB36 today. It came on an oyster bracelet but I removed immediately and put on a cheap NATO. I wanted a field type watch and started looking at the Ranger but decided I liked the BB36 with the traditional snowflake hands better.

Wow I like that way more than I should. Reminds me of something my grandfather would wear.

Makes me think of the WWII watch that Omega made for pilots.

I love the design and color scheme on the front. Not in love with the commemorative art on the back.

Is there a "standard" model with the same bezel, etc, but different color way?

Yes but they're all somewhat connected to a plane. It's the AVI-model

Good morning,
Very fitting post with dmwilson2009 posting this morning.

Selling a very very good condition 2010 Breitling Navitimer World (46mm). I bought it from dmwilson2009(TexAgs) in March of 2023. Serviced in 2017. He recently (2022) put a new blue leather OEM Breitling Strap on the Watch. I had a couple watches come in several months early and haven't had the time or need for this one.

Looking to get - $4500(what I paid for it)

Local to College Station but could travel within reason(have a newborn at the house).

Any tips/pointers for considering a purchase on Chrono24?

Anything I'm missing, or common sense sufficient with that site?

Check with ftac first and see what he can do for you

What are you looking for?

ETA: I've bought a few off of there from dealers and private sellers. One dealer was in Japan, and the rest were in the US. You can get a better deal from a private seller in most cases. I won't buy without box and papers, and the first thing I do is check the numbers on the warranty card against the caseback.

Unless it's something you can only find on Chrono24 many times they're not advantageous. They have to pay a large portion to Chrono24 when they sell, and chrono24 charges you tax when you buy.

Thanks as always!

Thanks to everyone for the replies. I'll address in order; apologies for poor formatting:
  • Why not message FTAC first? I wouldn't hesitate to use FTAC. I often find myself down a rabbit hole researching some oddball or inexpensive piece that I can only find on Chrono24 (not WatchRecon, watchuseek, etc.) and might not be worth FTAC's time. Ex. This Omega
  • Sorting by listings only with box & papers makes sense.
  • Right now I'm just kicking tires - if I get serious about a larger piece, I'll for sure reach out to FTAC.
