Back to Breitling after selling my last one about a year ago. I just picked up a Blackbird with red acccents on the dial from Grey Dealer (WOW) at a great price. Watch is a beauty but I was taken aback by the new packaging with no bakelite and saw that there were threads on the topic. I didn't see anything on the new COSC which does not have the serial typed into the cert but a sticker with the serial affixed to the back. Seems cheesy to me and just wanted to seee if this is how they come now. I couldn't find any info on this. Pice below - I hid some of the serial #.

As an aside, looks like the efficiency experts found ways to cut costs but to chince on the packaging on such an expensive piece is not a very good idea IMO. I know I don't wear the box but just rube you the wrong way.

There are threads on it and it's fine.

Thanks all. Watch is brand new. 62% discount off retail. Insane price. Couldn't pass it up.
