Hey everyone how are things? Hopefully for the people living in US you are enjoying the other pleasures of life given current market circumstances which trickle down to everyone.

So as I am enjoying finer more simple things in life..anyone ever frame your COSC Certificate?

I was framing my college diploma and thought wow the Breitling COSC is better looking than my piece of paper that has gotten me no job yet!

Just wondering if anyone is a maniac like me and has gone far enough to frame the COSC Certificate?

Thanks all

More to the point I'd be prepared to give it a go if I knew I'd be able to sell it as I've actually got a spare COSC certificate that came with a replacement watch box I bought off a guy once! :)

I've been close to throwing it out as a COSC certificate without the matching watch is of no use to anyone.

Yeah why the heck not.. the dials look pretty sweet framed.. add a COSC next to 'em would look good. I also have an extra COSC that came with a watch I purchased from an overseas Dealer.

That's not a bad idea. Makes more sense to me than plastering
your sheepskin on your wall. I might try it myself -- although I think
I'll leave my diploma in the drawer, where it's been resting for 35 years. :)

Sure, go ahead! And, if you later on decide to sell your watch you know where to find (at least one of them) the papers. :)

or at least I'll make a scan to be framed, original certi has to go back to my safe (I've ordered years ago the big COSC certi for my CSO so it's not only the yellow little thing that I have. The A4 size original COSC certi should make a great figure on the wall of my working-room. Peeping at my watch always makes me happy - from now on another place to look at when a little extra smile is needed.

Good luck and thx once again for the great idea!

Best regards: Robertus

Post some pictures if you frame the COSC.

Whoever has the dials framed, I would like to see a picture of this display. I thought Breitling was very careful about extra parts floating around because of counterfeiters?
