This is just my opinion, but I don't like seeing Breitling in the same store I buy two gallon containers of Ketchup...
BUSA should regulate this rather then AD discounts if they want to keep their stellar reputation.

Dollars to donuts that it's a non US sourced watch so BUSA can do nothing about it.

Costco buys from a non US based AD - just like most of the watches sourced by US based grey market retailers.

Yes. There are 3 Breitlings at my local costco. All are priced high. One is a Bentley Mark Vi selling for around $9700.00.

Chrono Galactic (effectively a Chronomat Evo with a different bezel) from the last couple of years.

HAHA LOL! I live in Orangeburg and I go to that Costco like 2-3 times a week! My wife works at Lowes.
Honestly I have never seen anyone looking at that watch so I really don't recall. I'm a chinese guy who wears my superocean (with the blue dial) all the time, so if you see me in Costco, say HI!
