Hi

I have been the proud owner of a Breitling Navitimer - black face and arabic numerals since last Thursday! I have been saving a long time for this and just love it.

My wife and I do a lot of driving holidays in Europe and she was talking just now and said we should visit the Breitling factory. This got me thinking...

So my simple question is, does anyone know if they actually have a visitor centre at their factory as I can't remember seeing anything about it on their website?

Good question, but I don't seem to find anything about it on the net. I think that would be really cool to see.

I talked with Breitling two weeks ago and asked if I could visit the factory (l1.5 hour drive for me). I was informed that it was not possible to visit the factory and that they only arranged tours for dealers. I suggest when you are in Switzerland to go to the watch museum in Geneva.

Hello Beastmaster,

I have visited the factory (as AD of course) which was a great thing to see. They don't even allow us into every room. The disturbance by visitors can be quite costly for the quality. Of course it is worth seeing it.
They don't let normal people into the factory.
But one of my former employees was there during his vacation, by chance and told them, he was working in a Breitling selling store, and they showed him a little bit. So if You can find a local AD, who allows You, to say, You work for him, You might be lucky, but there is no guarantee.
