Post subject:  Excellent AD in Montreal
I live in a large city in Canada that does not have a Breitling AD (not sure why). My closest AD is in Montreal. In early December 2008 I had made contact with the Montreal AD (St. Catherine St. W) to inquire about a 2009 black dial Steelfish. The AD did not have one in stock at the time but offered to call me if one came in. A few weeks later I got a call from the AD in Montreal on the morning of December 29 telling me he had the model I wanted and surpirsed me with the news he could give me 40% off retail. I was skeptical, but decided to go with my gut. I jumped in my car and drove the 2 hours to the AD. When I got there he told me that Breitling HQ had called off the discount. However, the AD was true to his word as a deal is a deal and he honoured the 40%. Needless to say I am impressed with this. He was very professional. Retail price was just under $3000.00 CAD. I got my 2009 black dial Steelfish for $1855.00 CAD taxes in. That's $1514.00 USD! It ranks as one of the top best deals I have ever received on any purchase period. I will refer anyone who asks where to buy a Breitling to the AD in Montreal. It's nice to see that customer service and professionalism still matter to some retailers.

He's fine - distributor approved discount between Christmas and New Year.

The AD will be fine. He made the verbal agreement with me on the price prior to Breitling pulling the plug on the 40% deal. He did nothing he wasn't authorised to do. If he did I certainly wouldn't post it on the web and cause him grief.

Steelfish is a great watch! You got a great discount, too. That is likely the best value you will ever get for a watch like that. I got my Steelfish earlier this year, and paid more even before the price went up in May. However, my AD still gave me a great discount, and I get wonderful service there, and I have absolutely no regrets. That was great on the part of the AD to honour the discount even though HQ rescinded it.
I am sure you will wear the Steelfish with pride and joy.
Cheers,
Carl
