Would you mind telling me what you had to pay for the White SA?
I am working with a dealer now and think the GB could be better.

thanks,

The other thread started to get a bit diluted and I realized from the 28 PM's I've received today that some of the info might be hard to find so I decided to start another thread on it.

Hi,

Great pics of the Avenger. Looking at two, the Advantage and Skyland on the bracelet. Could you please PM the contact info. I'm in Los Angeles.

Thanks,

JD


When talking to AD's PLEASE DO NOT tell them which dealer is doing the group buy!!!

1. The group buy is in full effect with many people buying so far. (18 at last count!)

2. Yes, the prices are amazing and apply to all Breitlings.

3. This is from an AD (Authorized Dealer) so you get ALL of the documents, boxes etc that you get when you walk into an AD to purchase.

4. The have asked we don't list pricing or who they are on the forums but I would be happy to provide you with a contact name, number and email at the AD who will help you. I have a price list handy and can give you an accurate number as well.

5. We have new news for international shoppers, PM me if you live outside the US and still want to buy through the group buy. (Requires a wire transfer)

6. If you live in California you will pay tax unless you either have it shipped out of state or you can pay in cash at the dealer.

7. I do not know for sure yet when the end date is but this deal isn't forever so shop accordingly.

8. All of the Super Avenger Limited's have been spoken for. (yes they were discounted a bit as well).

9. If you just joined the forums or have less than 5 posts, please (at the very least) introduce yourselves before sending me a PM. In your PM please tell me where you live. It matters. :)

10. There isn't an electronic price list I can send you.


I will make edits and updates to this first post so please refer to this first. If you have additional questions I will be happy to help you through PM's. If you know the item number in the 2008 chronolog that will help a bunch =]

Mario

Briweed, publicly no, we can't and won't list prices. Please keep stuff like this to PM's only.

Tom, no everyone orders individually whenever they are ready, as long as the group buy is still going. If the watch you want is in stock, some guys have been getting them delivered as early as the next day :D

Perhaps the group buy title is a little misleading. They understand how crazy it would be logistically to pool our money buy watches and get them all sent out as a large group, so in essence they have allowed us to buy at our own pace. Some have waited and scrapped together some paychecks while others have pissed off significant others and bought 2 or 3! LOL

It's not going to last forever but hey, there has been a ton of us whom are very happy that it was around at all ;)

Hi! A long time Breitling fan, I currently have a Skyland, an Evo and a Steelfish. I am looking to add a new generation Blackbird to my collection. Can you help. Could be on either strap or bracelet depending on price. Looking for it in the brushed/polished not the all polished version. Thanks!

Hey guys! Can I get in on this? I haven't exactly been a frequent poster but it's because I haven't bought my Breitling yet! After about 10 months of going back & forth between different brands and models I think I'm going to get a Superocean. I wanted to use one of my local ADs but if the price is better elsewhere I'm in! I will definitely post pics when I get it...

Thanks!

No problem with helping you guys with your addiction. Please take the time to READ the guidelines in the first post.

Hi. My name is Steve. I am a pilot in the US Navy. I have been a huge fan of Breitling watches for a while, but never took the plunge to buy one until I was in Jamaica. I got a great deal on a B-2 watch, which was always one of my favorites. It's too bad that Breitling recently discontinued it, but who knows, may be it will be worth more as soon as AD's sell out of the remaining watches. Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself to you, and I might be interested in a group buy, and wanted to get a little more information. The other watch I really like is Skyracer (slate gray dial, black subdial, professional bracelet). I was going to most likely go back to the AD in Jamaica, just because of the great prices there, until I saw the forum group buy. First of all, what are your opinions on the Skyracer? I fly almost every day, and I need a watch that can withstand the rough life of carrier life. Second, do you think that it will be cheaper to get in on a group by, or buy it from an AD overseas with a nice discount? Thank you.


I would PM In2Deep because the discounts at his AD are amazing. As an update, I just paid for my first Breitling. Decided on a Superocean with new Coral Dial (A1736006/O506) with 3 options, stainless steel bracelet, black "Breitling" rubber and brown/bronze ocean racer rubber straps. No luck yet on search for Limited Super Avenger Blacksteel. Thanks to In2Deep for the group buy option.

lol.. Call me naive, but I would have never thought this many people would have jumped in on the group buy so quickly.

Nice job on orchestrating the buy, Mario :!:
