A 2007 Airwolf should still have the COSC certificate as it is a chronometer rated watch. It should definitely come with the COSC cert, the international warranty booklet, the manual, and probably a slide rule "explainer".

You can get a replacement for everything except the warranty, although you will have to pay for the COSC - GBP35 / US$50 or so.

Just wanted to let you know that I tried to get a COSC replacement for my original Blackbird when I had it in for service (watch was a gift 10 years ago, never had the COSC) and BUSA told me it would have to be ordered through the original AD. However, they had no AD on record as having sold my watch (yet somehow they did have me listed as the owner) so they said I would be unable to get a replacement COSC.

Not sure if this is some sort of new policy or if I got some bad info (the person I spoke with is someone I dealt with on a few other issues and she was always extremely helpful so I am certainly inclined to believe her).

If you have a completed warranty booklet (mine is blank) I guess you won't have a problem even if you do have to go through the AD. Please let me know how this turns out for you, I'm curious.

Very odd, but maybe that's a BUSA stance.

BUK sorted out a replacement COSC certificate for my mate's Chronomat just fine. He sent the watch in to them for authentication and a new COSC cert, and it was a simple transaction.

A13050 wasn't COSC.
A13350 and A13353 were.
