There'll be one more available in the UK if they don't pull their bloody fingers out!

I'm in two minds to demand a refund and buy something else (but that wouldn't be fair on my trusted AD).

I'm really pissed off that a watch I bought on the 16th December was on my wrist for one day in total!!

This is a ridiculous state of affairs Stef. How the hell can a warranty job on a brand new watch take over a month to fix? I'm at a loss. Surely they could even just drop a new movement in to speed things up.

Can it be that maybe they were off for a coupla weeks at Breitling because of the holidays? That would make it less than a month, but still... Just a thought.

Yes, you're right F14D they were on leave, they've had it for just over 2 weeks now and I was told it should have been back last week but I haven't heard anything at all.

Still, the wait must be terrible Stef, especially for a brand new watch :o

It is, it's ridiculous that it ever passed quality control like it.

Good point - I forgot about the Xmas hols. Must've been because I got all of 4 days off, not a few weeks!

Hi all. I just looked at the Caliber 01 with Navitimer bracelet at an AD in Australia. Really such a super-nice piece. AD offered a 15% discount making it ~ USD$9,800. I'm wondering how this price stacks up? I'd be happy to order from an overseas AD if there was a significant difference in price (but I do want a full Breitling warranty).

If you bought from overseas factor in any shipping/import tax.
