Breitling Bentley A47362

The case measures 49mm across. Case material: Stainless steel. Case size alone is a poor guide to how a watch wears; lug-to-lug length and how the bracelet drops off the case matter more, which is why we suggest trying one on before you commit.

Automatic, Breitling Caliber 47B (base ETA/Valjoux 7754), COSC-certified chronometer.

It is rated to 100 meters, about 328 feet. That is enough for swimming and snorkeling, but not for scuba diving. One caution that applies to every watch on this page: a water resistance figure describes a new watch with fresh gaskets. On a piece that is years past its last service, treat the rating as unknown until it has been pressure tested.

Breitling produced this reference from 2008 to the present day. Production years matter when you are valuing one, because dial, bezel and bracelet details often changed inside a single reference run.

Millenary Watches): position 1 letter = case material, A = stainless steel (the 18k gold version of the same watch is R47362); positions 2-3 = caliber, here 47, a bare caliber number, which in this scheme means a third-party base movement, as opposed to Breitling's in-house calibers which carry a B prefix (B01); position 4 = COSC, 3 = chronometer-certified; positions 5-6 = model code, 62. A full long-form reference adds a finish pair, a dial code and a strap code (e.g. A4736212/B919-1RD). Breitling does not publish this scheme. It is compiled from collector documentation and reads as a reliable guide rather than a manufacturer specification.. Reading the reference is the fastest way to confirm that a watch is what the seller says it is, before you get anywhere near the movement.
