Hey guys,

I'm finally in the market to get my first Breitling Super Avenger with black face and ProII bracelet. My local AD is only willing to give me 14% off and then I'd have to pay tax which brings the total above $5k. I know I can buy online for $4k, but I don't want a grey market watch with no warranty.

That being said, I'm looking for a Breitling AD (out of my state to avoid tax) who can sell me a Super Avenger under $4,500. If any of you have any leads, I'd greatly appreciate it.

-Josh

Thanks for all the messages! Some stores I will have to call in the AM since they're closed. I will let you all know what I come up with.

So I called all the AD's you all PM'ed me with and they either wouldn't give me a price because I'd have to buy the watch in store or their price wasn't that good. My local AD just got a pre-owned SA in that's in prestine condition. Its a 2009 model and they want $3,100 after some negotiating. You guys think its a good deal? I think I'm going to pick it up tomorrow morning.

I am looking to get Breitling as well, a Super Avenger to be exact. I live in Toronto, Canada but travel throughout Canada and United States so flexible on where I buy. I am even going to BVI via St Thomas so have options there as well.

Any suggestions where I can buy this watch for good price from reputable dealer - please and thank you,

James

What do you consider to be a "not good price"?
