How would I go about selling my breitling watch? Can't go to a pawn shop and have no idea how to go aout selling it. Any help?? Thanks in advance marc

Pawn shops will only loan you money on the watch and generally won't buy it outright. If you do take out a loan on the watch and then don't return within a certain amount of time to claim it, the pawn shop can then sell it. You may want to get an appraisal and try to sell it through a newspaper ad if it appraises out for a lot (keep the appraisal also). You could probably ask 1/2 or 1/3 of the appraised amount.

I'm more interested in why you can't take it to a pawn shop - ?

A pawn shop can't loan me the amount of money I require.

They sell it for you for a percentage - if it doesn't sell you don't owe them and get your watch back. You don't get any advance money.

Even if a pawn shop did buy the watch, you won't receive a fair price. I buy and sell watches on eBay, you may want to try to sell it there. The key to doing that is taking many pictures, I think up tp 12 ae permitted. And take good quality pictures.. There it's a auction setting so you have a better chance to receive a maximum amount. I have bought Breitling watches on eBay, prices are fair for both, seller and buyer.
