I'm trying to find a dealers display pad from an AD, to put my Chronomat 01 LE on at night.

I'm wondering if AD's are allowed to do whatever they wish with the display items etc when they are no longer needed.

Do you guys out there with many purchases from an AD, or who may work @ an AD, know if I can somehow pay an AD for a pad and take it home with me, perhaps even if hey have to order it in etc?

Thanks!!

Technically they aren't allowed to sell them / give them away, but you would be surprised how many get 'damaged' and need to be replaced.

We even have to return the old ones, when we receive a new display....


Breitling is very, very restrictive on those things.

$1.99 for a micro-fiber cloth at an eyeglass store. If I set my watch on a nightstand or marble bathroom counter, it sits on an inexpensive cloth to avoid scratching. No need for padding. But then I don't use this for "display" purposes - that's part of what the winder is for.
