It appears that our friends at Breitling USA are taking an extended Independence Day break. My AD just called back and said that he couldn't get the part I ordered until NEXT week because the offices are closed till next Monday. A week off for the Fourth? C'mon! How do I get THAT job? :evil:

Haha yep, I was in my AD a few days ago and found out the same thing. It especially sucks because we have some questions that need some answering too ;)

Not all of us have the same great hours as Breitling.

The owner of our store is a Korean War veteran, and we were open on the 4th, and Saturday.

I would swear I worked for the Third Reich.

The AD offered to put the SA on a Diver Pro strap for $50, and then send me the bracelet when he gets it from Breitling. Is that a pretty good price for the Diver Pro?

I think it was a touch of guilt. He has already made the sale, taken the money, and then discovered that he couldn't provide the agreed upon product in a timely manner. This was his "let me make this right" stopgap fix. I'll take it. I've had a great experience with this AD, and would highly recommend them. (Fink's in Charlotte, NC).

Brian,

I used to be in the car business about 10 years ago. I never worked so many hours, weekends, Holidays, Birthdays, etc. I just viewed the post of the pictures of your Sweet Yellow Corvette and I would have to say that all your hard work and hours are paying off.
