Absolutely!

I mean come on, some people are getting giant bottles of olive oil and pink boxer shorts!!

They may as well have sent you a t-shirt saying "My watch and my money went to BUSA and all I got was this cheesy t-shirt"

:poke: :wink:

And I thought my "Breitling" labeled 2GB USB drive was bad enough :-)

I was under the impression that Breitling sent gifts when you purchased a new watch, are they now sending gifts when you send one in for repair?

I never expected any gifts after a service, but usually got a travel case with the watch. I have my B-1 SQ in for a full service/restoration and don't expect anything. In the past after a purchase, all I got was a stupid leather bomber jacket.. :poke: :wink:

Apparently not - I don't think that the Chronolog really counts as a gift.

well then perhaps thats why, we dont have any ADs around here, they may have also realized that I own a jewelry store, and just sent it for kicks. But yea closest AD is 2 hours away

I think it's more of a 'check this out' gesture. I grabbed one from the Sydney SC while I was there last, they're aren't exactly an exclusive item. That USB key sounds awesome tho...........
