Most of the watches that Breitling makes are in 18k gold (of various shades)
with base Swiss

movements. While I
don't know the details of their process or the prices, knowing what I do I can
guess how it works.
Prospective clients must contact them wishing to
commission a project. Assuming they are available, work begins by communicating
with the client on what they are looking for. The design phase is mostly an
exchange of pictures and like to get a visual design down. These watch decorator
teams spend a lot of time creating concept and mock-up art.
Once a design
is agreed upon, work gets started and the process can be extremely time
consuming. I'd imagine at least a few months per watch. Though companies like
Breitling would be amiss to do one project at a time. While the work they are
doing is quite traditional, it is ironically mostly designed and communicated
through e-mail. I suppose it would be more romantic (though impractical) to
visit Breitling and chat about it http://www.goodgoodwatches.co.uk/replica-breitling-bentley.html
over coffee and then beer for a few hours.
For some people, "custom piece
unique" is the ultimate luxury. Not only the idea that what you are buying only
you can have, but also that you had a big part in its design. There are also
those people who have distinct things they want someone to make. It is an
interesting dichotomy of desires actually.
On one end, you have the
person who is interested in having a skilled artist simply make something cool
and exclusive for them. On the other end is someone who has a particular concept
in their mind that they are unable to personally create and must find one of a
few people in the world able to produce Breitling. Not yet have I ever been one
of the latter. The former perhaps, but not the latter. Yet. Though perhaps a
time will replica

when i simply must have an engraved rendition of a

It is
good to know that extreme boutique watch engravers and decorators like Breitling
exist. I think that they will inevitably be held back by their geographic
location and remain small and relaxed. Perhaps that is a good thing when it
comes to producing handmade mechanical art. You can check out the Breitling
