ℹ️ 1-month trend

Price change over the past 30 days. Shows the short-term market movement — relevant if you want to buy or sell soon.

ℹ️ 4-month trend

The central metric behind the momentum score. It filters out short-term swings and shows the true, medium-term market trend of this reference.

ℹ️ Volatility

Annualised price fluctuation. Below 10 % = very stable, 10–20 % = normal, above 20 % = volatile. With high volatility the price can change quickly — in both directions. Be cautious about buying without checking the current price.

ℹ️ Momentum score

ChronoCheck's own indicator from 0 to 100, calculated from the 4-month trend, volatility and market direction.

  • Above 60 — Upward trend. Good time to sell, prices are rising.
  • 40 – 60 — Neutral. Stable price level, no pressure to act.
  • Below 40 — Downward trend. Wait or enter at a good price.
ℹ️ Investment Grade A/B/C/D

ChronoCheck's own rating for each reference. A 0–100 point scale, made up of four weighted components:

  • Momentum (40 pts) — trend strength from the momentum score.
  • Liquidity (25 pts) — number of active live listings.
  • Stability (20 pts) — inverse volatility — the calmer, the better.
  • Source robustness (15 pts) — number of independent market sources.
  • A · 75+ Trend is right, liquidity good, data broad.
  • B · 55–74 Solid, but one component weaker.
  • C · 35–54 Average, volatility or market breadth weigh on it.
  • D · below 35 Downward or too little data — a collector's piece.

Breitling Ref. 00840000471 — Variants and collector names

## Reference 00840000471: What the Number Actually Tells You

Breitling doesn't hand out reference numbers at random — every digit string encodes case, movement, and configuration. With 00840000471, you see a pattern I've run into again and again with Breitling since I started in the trade back in 2008: brand, caliber family, and lot number are all baked into the internal system, but none of it is obvious to the customer at a glance. That's exactly where ChronoCheck's real work begins — tracing the reference, verifying the configuration, and placing it in the current market.

## 1884 Is the Fixed Point for Every Valuation

Léon Breitling founded the house in 1884 in Saint-Imier, with a clear focus on chronographs and precision timing for aviation and military use. That focus is still the yardstick I use to measure every Breitling reference: since the early 2000s, Breitling has had virtually every mechanical model COSC-certified, with a rate deviation of no more than minus 4 to plus 6 seconds a day. So assessing a reference like 00840000471 isn't just about the design — it's about checking whether the movement documentation actually lives up to that standard.

## Authenticity Starts at the Reference Number, Not the Logo

Our database currently has no confirmed data on dial, bezel, or caliber variants for this reference — a gap I run into more often with less-documented Breitling references than with the well-known lines like Navitimer or Superocean. For valuation purposes, that means the case number, reference stamping, and papers all need to line up before market value even enters the conversation. Closing that gap before money changes hands is exactly what a ChronoCheck report is for.

Brand profile: Breitling

Breitling is known for aviation and dive watches. Chronographs (Navitimer, Chronomat) are the most frequently counterfeited. Pay close attention to slide rule details and COSC certification.

Key authenticity features
  • Wing logo: a genuine Breitling logo shows the anchor and wing tips that NEVER touch — precise negative space between them — fakes let the tips meet or overlap
  • 3D 'B' crown: the 'B' on the crown must appear three-dimensional with a light reflection on the curve — a flat 'B' = fake
  • Bezel scale vs. dial: the outer white bezel scale must align precisely with the inner black dial indices — fakes show misalignment
  • Date disc depth: a genuine Navitimer date disc sits flush with the dial plane — fakes show the date window as a 'crater' (noticeably sunken or raised)

Serial number format: Breitling serial numbers: alphanumeric, located between the lugs at 6 o'clock. Format: one letter + 8 digits (e.g. 'AB012012'). Older models: digits only.
