If someone with Rolex(s) wants to sell, they probably want the cash, not a Breitling. If someone with Rolex(s) wants a used Bretling, they probably can simply buy one, without offloading a watch to do it. That's why no one wants to do the trade.

They are great watches and hold their value similarly to other marques in their price band. Remember, they can be readily had new at 20-30 pct off retail. Discounts when new do not help resale values.

I have an Avenger....Blue one. Very happy with it.

Keep the Breitling...save a while longer for the Rolex. Enjoy both. :-)
