    It seems to me that the outsourced movement vs quartz, vs In-house automatic movements affects the customers' perception based on their philosophy on buying the time piece. Is it jewelry? is it art? is it a necessity? or is it all of them? the more in depth you know about watches, the less satisfied you tend to be with 'less complicated' production processes involved in the making of the watch.

    Those quartz Breitling aviation watches were so cool when I was growing up in the 80s. Huge ads in the Financial Times proclaimed this as the watch for the adventurer. That and the Tag Heuer S/el with those gorgeous links on the bracelet and the association with Ayrton Senna. Both the S/el with its iconic links & the Breitling Emergency were designed by the same guy, Eddie Schopfer.

      Mine is the worst quality watch of the few I have..perhaps unlucky but the digital unit went quite quickly and the strap quality (leather) was poor so I replaced it. Battery usage is quite high too. All in all, a disappoinment and I won't be buying this brand again. Just my view.

    What they dont tell you about Brietling is that when there is a problem the company Makes the repair so expensive. It’ll encourage you to buy another watch. I had one, for less than a year the digital display became non functional. All services including shipping were unnessary expensive they claimed a faulty “module “ would cost nearly as much to repair than the whole $5000 watch! Did the math the watch even if functional deflated in price so to fix it at nearly the cost of the watch made zero sense ! The service centre was rude, ignorant, and the while it should’ve been fixed under their warranty, it wasn’t. They had it for months and they didn’t fix it! Brietling is disposable trash. Very expensive disposable trash at that!

From crying over quartz (which outperforms mechanical in every single measurable way) then killing accuracy competition when Seiko started to win, then giving the only quartz certificate to Breitling exclusively. Now we are bombarded with stories of "heritage" and "affection" as a main factor in justifying swiss watch overpricing. I hope I can find one single, pre-quartz commercial mentioning heritage.

      "then giving the only quartz certificate to Breitling exclusively" Uhh... what? What stuff did you smoke? There is no Breitling-exclusive certificate. Every manufacturer can get both mechanical and quartz movements certified by COSC if they fulfill the criteria.

    I like the way you put that, how do you know your watch was a Breitling? You bought it from one Mr. Breitling, two Streets past old John. Lol. It's a good point though, you bought a gold pocket watch, weather it came from Breitling, Messrs Patek and Philippe or even the Imperial Russian jewler H. Moser. It was the product, not so much who made it.

    SuperQuartz? +/- 15s/year? And the minute hand ticks too!
    Grand Seiko and especially Citizen are laughing.

    I enjoy your channel, however, I must take exception to your title on this one: no-one tells me about any of the watches I purchase.

    First Breitling I ever saw was on the wrist of a Colonel in Afghanistan and I wanted one immediately. I buy watches I like and don't care about resale or how much they go up or down so I will get one eventually.

    most brands: "yea its quartz but its as high end as a mechanical!!"
    breitling: "its a life insurance and you get the best quartz watch ever made as a bonus."

      Breitling doesn’t make the best quartz by a long shot, bud. That’s Grand Seiko.
