After much research I am ready to purchase my first Breitling. I'm hoping a few knowledgeable folks might be able to make this process easy and painless.

Unfortunately I do not live close to an authorized dealer, which is leaving me to scary task to purchasing off the internet. It is very important to me to get the real deal, and just a really good replica!!!

If anyone could point me in the right direction to purchase my first Ling timepiece, it would be greatly appreciated.

Well, you could search the buy/sell section on here for a pre-owned Breitling or contacting JNelson for the contact info for George and Govberg Jewelers is also a pretty popular option. I'm assuming that you're in the States, right?

Prestige Time is grey market, so no warranty, although the pieces are real. Price will also suck when you get hit for import duty and sales taxes when it crosses the border. If you are comfortable buying sight unseen from an AD then I can give you a contact in Ontario who can ship to you.

skyracer is a great first watch. if i were you i would take up Roff on his offer of putting you in touch with the AD. its always best to get full factory warranty and piece of mind for your luxury watch purchases.

Not a chance that I'm posting that publicly - my contact would soon disown me! :shock:

PM me when you are ready to buy.
