Customer Reviews

This watch sucks - Customer services is even worse. DO NOT BUY IT.
I bought a Breitling 4 years ago and had so many problems with it since then. I am not used to taking my watch off my wrist even when I take shower. I have 2 other watches, one Rolex and one Omega and never had problems taking bath or getting into the water with them, but with Breitling I had. It was about 2 months after I bought it, the damn thing formed moisture inside it, kind of the air condensate inside , probably from me getting into a hot bathtub wearing it, so I took the watch to the dealer and they said that Breitling didn't offer any warranty in the case that water, humidity gets or moisture/condensate forms inside the watch.(It was supposed to be water proof). So I had to pay US$900 to have a repair service and cleaning done on the thing. Then within one week after getting the watch back, one screw of the bezel fell off so I took the watch back for repair and again they told me that there was no warranty for that because the place where the screw goes was damaged due to over torque on the screw and that it would cost me about US$400, or even more depending, to have it repaired, so I just gave up repairing it again. Next day I took the watch to another watch repair store, and to add insult to injury, the clerk at the store told me that who ever did the repair on the watch before had over tightened the screw and by doing so had damaged not only the screw but the hole and then to cover the mistake they had put superglue in the hole and placed the screw back. (Isn't it a kind of thing that would piss someone off?)
WHAT A SH.T service.

I am very disappointed and I am sure to let everyone knows about it.
I have had my Rolex for about 10 years and my Omega for 6 and never had a major problem with them.
The only time I had a problem with my Rolex was when the wristband didn't want to lock properly so I took it for repair and they repaired it in 24 hours NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

I'll give it one star because there is nothing worse to give in here.

hmmm
according to their website, Breitling does not sell their watches on the internet, and any such watch is not covered by their warranty.

Breitling isnt the problem, the other reviewer is.
First off, I have seen this post on many of the Breitling posts, Breitling does NOT sell their watches on the internet and you will get no warranty if you do buy them on the internet.. you do not know if you are getting a new, new old stock, second hand, gray market, refurbished, or some other problem in a box. Yes there are discounts but why take the chance... go to an authorized dealer.. Buyer beware!

The tolerances of these watches are tight and if some idiot cracks the case back without knowing what they are doing such as an unlicensed repair shop they will mess up the seals and cause moisture build up. Generally bathing with a watch is a dumb idea anyway because soaps and other chemicals are bad for the seals in watches, not to mention the hot water. It sounds also like the watch he bought might not even be real with "one screw" holding on the bezel. Nothing with Swiss watches is ever as simple as 1 screw. But that also goes to the point that the buyer went to a hack shop with untrained staff that ruined his watch, even if it was real, which is doubtful.

If the shop is not licensed to repair Breitling don't let them work on the watch. Most of the time a good jewelry store will send the watch to Switzerland to get repaired by Breitling. Yes this takes time but the watch usually comes back almost as good as new, they usually take the time to (factory) polish watches before sending them back.

Breitling makes a quality watch which is accurate, and virtually problem free. They are NOT waterproof (nothing is) but they are water resistant, and they are very well made. They make one of the best bracelets in the watch industry and the build quality is top notch. I personally own three, and have had them for years they have only been back to Switzerland for regular service and I can't complain about their service department one bit. They are decently fast at getting watches back (compared to other Swiss makers) and the watches always look like a million bucks when I get them back. Yes service is costly but I have never paid more than $400 for any service or repair with any Swiss watch I have owned. YES it takes a little longer than popping a battery in a Casio but when you get a watch like this you should not expect cheap shoddy work.

I can't recommend internet sales of these items (I have met many people who have gotten screwed) But I can highly recommend Breitling timepieces, few companies make watches as well as they do.
