Breitling watches

I'm surprised that Breitling will not fix your watch. My 25 year old Wakmann
Chrono is being cleaned/overhauled by Wakmann right now. Cost will be
$500.00 .

When I dropped off the watch in Manhattan a few weeks ago, I inquired about
the relationship between Breitling and Wakmann. (I see many Wakmanns
advertised as "Wakmann/Breitling"s on EBAY). The service rep informed me
that Wakmann was bought out by Breitling a few years ago.

By the way, my watch ends up in the shop every 6 years, on average. I've
owned two Pipers with Wakmann clocks in them, and have never had a problem.
And I've used their wind-up clocks on B727s with no complaints either.

another trick question: how long will they 'support' a given
model? I have a Breitling that was given to me as a gift and
which has a considerable sentimental value, but which bezel
was damaged; Breitling will not fix it (the only option they
offered was to trade it in for peanuts towards buying another
one of their model, which is not an option, see sentimental
value part); my only hope is to eventually find a watch maker
which might have the relevent part in store...
