Manfish 0 Posted August 28, 2016 I have a genuine Breitling colt that is in need of a service. I have seen the guys on here that are happy to do the replica services, does anyone have any recommendations when it comes to getting a service done on a gen? I don't really care about keeping the original factory warranty card up to date as I have no intention of selling it, but would appreciate pointers for a good Europe based service point.

Rolexwatchman 0 Posted August 28, 2016 You're looking for a member service? I suggest you go to a AD if it's a gen. That way you have all paper work etc., Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomtom1988 63 Posted August 28, 2016 Definitely get your gens serviced by an AD, not as expensive as you'd think either, Cartier do a maintenance service for £80. Unless you have underlying problems with the watch then it shouldn't cost you a bomb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SamsonAusKognito 31 Posted August 28, 2016 And an AD will usually be faster than a international member service. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Manfish 0 Posted August 28, 2016 I was thinking that but it looks like it will be around half the value of the watch for the service, on Breitling website it says €345 plus parts so was looking for a cheaper option I don't really care about the paperwork and the colt GMT only sells for around £1 to £1.5k second hand.

black263 228 Posted August 28, 2016 Just search for watchsmiths in your local area. Most should be capable of doing a strip-down, clean and lube. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
