Got a hankering for a grab and go ana-digi, and wondered about a fully stickered year old Aerospace evo.? Whats a decent price given these are or maybe were a discounted brand?
If you are buying outside UK check some EU sources. Aerospace are always a good ani-digi choice. Not sure why you want a ‘stickered’ one as a second hand will serve just as good. Do you have a size in mind as the newer are a bit larger than the vintage ones. You could always post a WTB and see when you get.
wild guess 2K should get you a decent second hand - I could be out on this. Check SC for recent sale posts.
should get at least 15%-20% off MRP

Thanks. Appreciate the input. I'm aware of the Exospace on SC but for it to fit me a new £320 strap would be needed.
The stickered watch is also a 43mm (good) and priced at £2500 on a bracelet. I like the blue accents on the Exospace but the price of a new rubber strap is laughable.
I'm OCD fussy, new is invariably my better option.
Good watch and all-rounder. My 42mm Aerospace is currently running at an incredible +1.2 seconds a year. Originally bought it new back in 2013, at the time when the 43mm EVO came to replace it. I much prefer the aesthetic and bracelet of the 42mm “Avantage” over the 43mm “EVO”. But both use the same exact Superquartz movement, Breitling caliber 79.Originally Posted by shadowman

Personally, I believe the Aerospace is the best modern Breitling ever made.
I really like these and ani digit’s generally but get the feeling that they are a bit unreliable- is this true or am I wrong
Maybe I’ve just read a couple of one of stories
Mine is 9 years old and has been my defacto travel all that time.
Very reliable. I always send it back to Breitling for battery service. Just had a movement overhaul service done about a year ago. Watch looks and feels new. Running at a stunning +1.3 seconds a year.
It seems I'm on the right path then.
Aerospace - rock solid proven movement. B55 let’s say on a sample size of 1 - less so. Sometimes less is more.

I had a B50 Cockpit Night mission. Disappointing watch. Gaining more than the promised 15 seconds a year. Breitling USA claimed the B50 module can not be regulated. Got rid of the watch and took a loss.
Can’t believe I sold a perfectly mint LE Airwolf to fund the B50. Lesson learned.
