I am considering buying myself a new Aerospace as a birthday gift this year. I have a few questions for people living in the UK:

- Any recommendation with regards to resellers ? Is there a much price difference between them ? Customer service(post sales, of course)
- Can one negotiate discounts ?
- If I were to order a model that is not in stock, how long does it normally take to arrive ?

Thanks in advance.

I would stronly recommend that you call Andrew Micheals for a quote, link at the top of the page. I've bought several watches from them, both the prices and service are totally faultless.

Banks Lyon certainly are reliable. They offer good prices, but then do Andrew Michaels. Put a call in to both. :thumbsup:

Hi Oli_Ro,

I've just been speaking to Sam at Andrew Michaels and he informs me you have already made an enquiry with them.

He will look into this today but promises to beat the price you've already been quoted.

Good luck.

Just a quick update:
I decided to get an automatic watch in the end and having small wrist size I wanted something under 40mm.
I considered the Galactic Chrono, but the guys at Andrew Michaels made me an attractive price for a Cockpit Chrono, which I like more than the Galactic anyway, and I don't mind too much that was discontinued.
Watch arrived this week and I am very happy with it and the whole experience in dealing with Andrew Michaels. Banks&Lyon were very helpful as well, so no complaint there.

However, after reading a few threads and trying a few watches with "normal" diameters, I can definitely say that there is a market for smaller diameter watches for people with smaller wrist size and there aren't many choices in the Breitling line-up.
