Has anyone come across a surge of 'grey imports'? They appear to be genuine with box and papers, or they're really good fakes, sold as genuine but hey ho no gaurantee. In South Africa it's started happening & as I know Breitling are the other side of paranoid about this sort of thing. Would be good to hear if anyone elsewhere has spotted this. The two I've done a double-take on are the 01 (B01) and the other the Skyracer.

This may have been brought up elsewhere in the forum by someone in the know, sorry if a repeat.

Grey market sellers have always been a big part of the market, and Breitling doesn't seem to care - they don't do anything to try and prevent it.

The biggest market for the Swiss watch industry is Hong Kong, it's naive to think that a lot of those watches aren't ending up in the grey market.
