Thegouda,

Yes they are reputable, I just received a diamond bezel from them today and it's great. There have been some concerns on this forum about them removing serial numbers on watches but for a bracelet you should have no problem at all. I ordered my bezel Monday night by phone, the order was processed Tuesday and I have my bezel this morning. I've already had it installed on my Bentley.

You can find lots of info here from people that have dealt with them:

Having said that, I think their prices for bracelets is a bit high.

Their $195 price for rubber straps price is laughable.

I have ordered from them twice with no problems. They ship watches via FedEx Overnight at no extra charge, even to Hawaii. The serial numbers on some watches are removed, but it depends on the distributor that delivered a particular batch of watches. I bought my Skyland from them and the serial number is intact though some Breitlings sold previously did not have serials.

Echoing what Nelson said, I find that their prices for straps and bracelets are high, even higher than what I would pay at my local AD.

As I posted on the other thread on this topic..... their prices for straps and bracelets are US list - any AD should give you better.

thanks for the replies. I think I need to get it from these guys as I have already gone to several AD's looking for a bracelet (Breitling no longer makes them for my model) but these guys have it. My leather band it came with is pretty much shot, and I've always wanted the SS bracelet anyway, so I think now is the time, especially if these are hard to find.

THANKS
