Post subject: | Cheapest country to buy a Breitling |
Hey guys. So I made a thread a couple of weeks ago about getting a Montbrilliant Legende. After doing some research it seems as though the cheapest option is in the US. Can anyone validate this? I have a couple of good mates in NY, HK and Ontario too so I was going to ask them to have a look around for me. |

US and Canadian prices are now virtually identical - there is only $10 difference in list between the Navitimer B01 for example. However, Canadian dealer prices have not been increased like the US prices so the discount can be higher in Canada. Taxes tend to be higher in Canada, but for an out of country purchase that is less relevant as you can claim some or all of the taxes back. |

I dont suppose that you would possible know the price of a Navitimer Montbrilliant Legende or refer to some AD sites who may have listed prices. I can ask my friend in Ontario to send it through.

Thanks. |

FEAR wrote: with the weak usd, they can make a killing buying here and taking to europe Well then by definition that must also be true in Canada - if they pay less in Canada than the US then they'll make even more selling in Europe. I can buy cheaper in Canada now than I could in the US, even if you ignore the import duties - and in some cases, considerably cheaper. @Frizzel, Provident is not a site sponsor - FEAR has a contact with them, but the site sponsors are listed at the top and bottom of the page. I don't have a current Canadian price list, but as I say they are virtually identical to US - http://www.breitlingsource.com/pricelist.shtml. I can give you contact details for an AD in Ontario if you or your friend wants to follow up, but you will have to contact them directly for pricing as I am not associated with them. |

Used the USA, New either Canada or Saudi Arabia depending who gives you the best discount, so the cheapest is pending circumstances. One of the 3 has been the best used price I found or cheapest new quoted to me. For example, the last quote I got was $800 more in the USA then I was quoted here in Canada. |
