Anybody have any experience between the two gray market dealer for a Breitling? I'm considering a SuperOcean Chrono, SPO Steelfish, or a Seawolf and would like to purchase from a gray market. Was wondering where to get it. The 2 gray dealers above have good pricing, however I'm not sure if they're reliable. I just got the Rolex Sub Ceramic and love it and would like to add a Breitling in my collection. I've had experience with Jomashop.com, but they don't have the models I'm interested in. Any thoughts? Thanks guys! :lingsrock:

PrestigeTime are absolutely fine to deal with as I know people who have used them. They are also a BreitlingSource sponsor (see top right of the screen).

I've no knowledge about Greystone at all.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Graystone has lower prices, but I have to go with the tried and true :-) My local A.D. Tourneau is only willing to give me 10% off + 6 months no interest financing option.

I highly recommend them.

Give Ben a call if you have questions. He's very knowledgeable.

I suggest going to an A.D. Call Govberg Jewelers in PA @ (800) 528-8463 and ask to speak with Brian (owner's son). He'll take care of you. The best part is you're covered with Breitling's manufacturers warranty and includes all paperwork. Govberg is an A.D for more than 50 watch brands.

If you mean Govbergs then their is a link to their site at the bottom of every page of the forum as they are a sponsor. There is also an 'official' connection with them through jnelson3097 - PM him for contact details of George who has helped dozens of members and who you can read about all over the feedback section.

Yes.
