 Breitling is one of the most recognised Swiss watch brand manufacturing luxury timepieces since 1884.

 Breitling Serial numbers and Reference Numbers

Breitling uses a unique dual reference number and serial number system for their watches.  

The reference number and the serial number can be located on the underside of your watch’s casing. The reference number is a 12-digit code consisting of numbers and letters, whereas the length of the serial number varies depending on the model.

Serial numbers are unique identifiers for individual timepieces, revealing details about production date, materials, and authenticity.

Model reference numbers are specific to each Breitling design. They indicate the particular model within a collection, including information about complications, case size, and dial variations. For instance, a Navitimer might have a model reference like "A13324," which tells experts exactly which version of the Navitimer it is.
