A friend of mine who owes me a bit of cash, but whom is also very skint has offered me the following to "forgive" his debt.
Its a Breitling Colt Ocean Quartz with stainless steel bracelet. A53050 2004.
I'll not say how much he owes me. The watch has a stamped service history book and is still boxed in very good condition.

Brand new they're about £1500, IIRC.

Quartz Colts are quite difficult to shift.

If you were to plan on keeping it, fine, but place a value of something like £750-850?

It's the cheapest Breitling, and Quartz is not sought after I'm afraid.

If it's a stainless strap, not brushed stainless... and it's actually be worn it will look hammered.

I had Breitling Colt GMT in stainless. I had it two weeks and wore it most days and it looked absolutely fecked.

(It also lost a few minutes everyday so I swapped it for a brushed steel Aveneger Seawolf Chrono which still looks like new despite being worn every day for 6 months)
