FS: Breitling Blackbird (polished) w/2 straps.
For sale is my 1 year old Breitling "Blackbird" with the polished case finish. With it, I'm including both the leather strap, which I literally wore less than 5 times, and the black rubber strap, which is the strap I've used since I bought it. Both straps have the deployant buckle, not the bar and tang (tongue and hole) system.
I bought it brand new through FEAR. (he can also vouch for authenticity and overall quality.)
The leather strap is basically new with only a scratch from where my Jeweler marked it with his fingernail when removing it from the watch to install the rubber strap.
The rubber strap is in great overall condition, but since it has 99% of the use since I've owned the watch, it has scratches on the bottom of the buckle where your wrist would make contact with a table when sitting. (Any competent jewelry boutique should be able to polish it up.)
It lists for around $7000 plus tax for the watch and both straps.
Anyway, I'm looking to get $4500 for it or best reasonable offer. I'm replacing it with either a Ulysse Nardin "Black Sea" or an 1198 Ducati (My 09 R1 recently sold), so sooner is better than later.
Lastly, should you have any questions, please feel free to call or text me at 310-902-1050 or email me at alan@g3carbon.com.
Thanks for looking,
Alan

These should be easily polished/buffed out:


Apologies for the paint stained fingers:

I see a lot of looks but no interest.
Priced too high? Reasonable offers considered.

Can do.

I've been trying to get a car ready for the Super Chevy show this weekend (I own a small carbons fiber and composites company and we're dressing one up for display)
I'll PM you pics of the bike ASAP. FWIW: It's a 2009 with custom paint and is largely stock, otherwise.I used to love her, but I had to kill her. *shrug*
