Has anyone had any experience of these guys - they seem to offer some fairly good discounts!

Hmm I'm tempted to buy this Breitling - http://www.deliciouswatches.co.uk/index.php?status... which is about £400 cheaper than the cheapest AD, but the warning on the Breitling home page about Internet fakes is putting me off frown

Yeah - that was my concern which is why I was hoping that someone may have had a positive experience with them that they'd like to share!

Never used them, but if you look at some of the Rolex prices they are charging a premium (ie GMTIIc) which makes me more ocnfident they are legit than if they were offering such a watch at a discount. Their prices for things like the Sea Dweller are below MRSP, but fairly typical of an internet dealer's prices.

Mind you, the Breitlings are the cheapest I have seen anywhere.

The way I look at it, is that I have just been able to get 15% off a Breitling from a reputable high street jeweller. My watch is being supplied direct from Breitling (I ordered from the catalogue, rather than stock) and it will come with the jeweller's stamp on the guarantee, everything nicely presented, face-to-face purchase experience and the peaceof mind of knowing that at any time I can walk back into the store I bought it from and discuss any issues I have (handy when sizing the bracelet for my Tag, which I get them to do 3 times before I was happy smile).

When paying thousands of pounds for any product, I am quite happy to pay a couple of quid more than the absolute minimum I could pay, in order to get the above peace of mind and service.

You pays your money...etc.

I know but does that really give any more confidence - there might be no-one there!-)

I was originally after either a Bi-metal daytona or an AP ROO Safari (although I'm not too sure about the AP price rise to 12.9K now!) Although some people have suggested that I should look at the Hublot Big bang which to be honest I hadn't considered before, so it would probably be best to go and view them in the flesh together, so to speak - I'll get down to Marcus when I get a chance!

I realy would like to know if these people are trustworthy. I do like their Breitling Super Ocean Heritage, price is not bad, actually I just bought a Panerai PAM 0164 and have some change left, just enough for this Breitling.

But I sure am worried about the remark on the Breitling website about fakes.

Anybody who has bought from these guys ????


Thanks for your comments

As has been discussed on here previously, the AP has an in-house movement as opposed to the Hublot BB's ETA 7750-based movement. Considering the price of the BB, it does use a relatively cheap base movement. My choice would be the AP. I'd love a ROO T3 though the price is somewhat hard to swallow!

I briefly chatted with an operative from the company, I did ask him how I could be sure if the watches they supply are not fake, this was his answer:

all of our Breitling watches come with the manufacture warranty stamped with the dealer stamp from whom we order it through. All serial numbers are intact and match the warranty. You can call Breitling when the watch is with you to confirm it with them. we dont recomend you saying that it was brought online as they will more than likely dismiss it without even checking

I am still confused, not sure about this
