Hi All,

I am new to this Forum and looking at purchasing a new Breitling Super Avenger. Was looking for any advise or experiences with an online gray market dealer www.infinititimepieces.com
http://www.infinititimepieces.com

I am located in Toronto Canada where canadian pricing is not that appealing when compared to US and gray markets. Would consider a local AD such as La Swiss if there were any sales. Olso looking at picking up an Omega or lady rolex for the wife as our 10th year anniversary up in Oct:)

cheers,

I can give you a contact at La Swiss - PM me.

Don't know these guys, but grey market says it all for me.

Remember also that when you bring it into Canada you will be hit for 5% GST, 8% PST, 5% import duty, handling fees and 5% GST on the handling fees - not quite such a good deal now!

Just wanted to add that Customs duties on importation of watches in Canada is 6% rather than 5.

Then you add GST on that total amount. Then any appliable PST.

Cheers
