Battery for Breitling 2007 Aerospace Avantage
Looking to buy a battery for my 2007 Aerospace Avantage. Brought it into Birks in Toronto, Canada to get this done and after 2 weeks of them sending it to Breitling they were quoting me over $800 for an overhaul and would not just change the battery which they originally quoted me $150. Apparently Breitling will not change the battery on my watch due to it's age. I got the watch back as I was not going to spend $800 on it....i'd like to buy a replacement battery myself and try to change it myself.Any suggestion where I can source a battery? tried searching on the internet and was not able to find any....in the mean time I'll wear one of my panerai's but the Breitling was my Daily watch....

They admire it for a bit, and move on. Nobody, including me, mentions the 2017 SS DJ I'm wearing in full view, which I didn't mind at all.Given that my watch probably was worth more than all the others at the table combined, and it got no attention when the topic of watches was raised, you might wonder why spend all that on Rolex?Many have said on TRF that they're not interested in the attention of others, but wear their Rolex for personal satisfaction.Here are some of my reasons:-- I like the history of the brand and of the DJ-- I enjoy the amazing engineering excellence making a chronometer this accurate-- For a daily wearer I want chronometer accuracy-- I wore quartz for many years but much prefer automatic sweep second hand and no battery replacement-- water resistance and the date are importan
