Dear chip,
Thanks! So happy to have your prompt reply.
I love watches very much, especially Breitling.
Surely with pleasure to be a regular visitor here.
Sorry for my bad skill on taking photos. The last one (Chrono Superocean) was not taken by me.
Will try to make more photos on Breitling and will post those seems acceptable.
My next targeted Breitling will be:
1. Superocean Steelfish X-Plus 2. Super Avenger 3. Breitling for Bentley 4. Chronomat Evolution, two tone, black dial
Hopefully can have them all but it will take some time and most important, $$$$$$$.
p.s. I am not a rich guy and it is not an easy task for me to add up my collection.
Best regards,
Kelvin Lau

Dear Breitling Fans (BF) here,
I will be visiting here on a regular basis.
Breitling watches in Hong Kong are not expensive in comparison with Rolxx, Omegx, Cartixx, Zenxx, Panarxx.
There are around 13 authorised dealers in Hong Kong, located in Central, Tsimshatsui and Mongkok.
In Hong Kong, Breitling is not as popular as those brands as above mentioned, that's the reason I like Breitling, so far, I never met the same model while wearing my Breitlings in busy shopping areas.
The Chinese name for Breitling means "good for hundred year", it implies a durability, precision.
Second hand price for Breitling is low, comparing with Rolxx, but not too many for sales. I saw one shop selling a very good condition Blackbird S/S case and bracelet (both brushed) at only USD1,000 and it was sold the next day I visit that shop.
There are still some new old stock Breitling still could be found around, for example, Crosswind Racing, previous model of Chronomat, Navitimer, Callisto and etc. I saw one new old stock Cosmonaute, (two tone, both bazel and bracelt, blue steel hands, non Chronometer model, hand-wonded)which only cost USD2,950!!!!!!
But there is no free gift such as hats from Breitling in HK.
Will keep letting you know if there is any news.
Thanks and regards,
Kelvin

Dear Chip,
You are more than welcome to come!
As Breitling watches carry 2-year international warranty, you will find a lot of inexpensive B here.
For your information, I have the same Omega Seamaster as you do, but mine is in stainless steel, it was the one I like the most before I have my Breitling.
Cheers
