Why are breitling watches so relatively unpopular? Iam new to watches and the Navitimer is subjectively one of the prettiest watches for me. What are the reasons why i should reconsider a purchase? I have heard that these watches are relatively bad when it comes to holding value. But is the build quality inferior to other watches or what happened that makes them so unpopular?

Thanks

I fell in love with breitling, really wanted one... Then I tried one on and the moment it was on my wrist it looks totally different to the pictures and what it did under the bright light.

I was incredibly disappointed, I ended up with a omega seamaster 300m instead, and it's done nothing but increase in value while the breitling has stayed the same price...

Interesting. I tried them back to back and the Omega felt noticeably more fragile than the Superocean.
