I purchased a SO Steelfish from an authorized AD. Am I supposed to get a hat or something from Breitling?

You should receive a hat in the mail after 3-4 weeks or so.

I know they do that in the US (though last I heard the hats were on backorder and taking a bit longer to ship) but I don't know if they do that for Canada. I know they do not for the UK. Somebody here should be able to confirm if Canada gets gifts.

Talk to your AD and he can get one for you - not automatic like in US, but not difficult.

When I purchased my first Evolution they sent me a hat as you have mentioned. After I purchsed my Super Ocean 46 they sent me a cool little Breitling yellow swiss army knife in a leather case.

After I bought the Evolution and Steelfish (on the same trip/day) I didnt get squat for a month or so then I got a little yellow swiss knife and a thank you card. hmmm Wheres my hat???? Now I have bought a Pro2 bracelet and a two tone Starliner (for the wife) I sure hope a hat or 2 or 3 are gonna get sent sometime.....

I need something from Breitling and the new price hike has put a little slowdown on the furture Breitlings.

As said in numerous posts before... If the hat is important - buy it on ebay. Don't expect pity from any european members, as we get nothing but a much more heavy bill than the north american fellows.

And by the way, good luck with the hat... :)

I would never have bought the hat in a million years. 90% of its appeal is that they gave it to you as a gift. Its good looks are just icing on the cake.

I have never received anything from Breitling :( However--each time I purchased--the AD gave me stuff :D Like a small storage bag, a hat, and a small book Perhaps the entire thing depends on the country, the continent or the time of year :lol:

aleister,

If they end up sending me 3 hats for the 3 Breitlings that I have bought in the last 4 mo, I will send you one of the hats..... if you want one. :) I think it is unfair that you fellas across the big pond dont get anything from Breitling. And although the $10 pocket knife isnt something I would use, it is a nice token.

Scott

Thanks BroncoSport, a nice gesture, but as you might have guessed I'm not really in the "hat race"... :lol:
