Have loved Brietling and Bremont designs for years, but even used, I cant push myself to spend $12-$20K right now with the world on fire, so having been researching replicas and all the nuances of buying from the Grey market the past 6 months. By chance, does anyone have this replica in hand, abd from a decent seller? Reddit pointed me to a guy named WU on WhatsApp, he wants $500 for this, and just wondering if a Brietling replica is worth that? As most reviews say he is generally an $80-$100 watch dealer. Found some on the sites listed here, for around $400, but wondering if sites like the ones this website runs advertising for are good copies?

Anyways, see attached, would love to hear and see what anyone has to say, good or bad! Thanks everyone, great to meet you!

First, I recommend always buying from one of the TDs you can find here. Most of them have access to all the same replicas and can get you the best versions, as long as you know what you’re looking for.

For the model you’re after, I would do a bit more research on the ones available from GF and BLS.

The dealers listed on RWI aren't dealers ads, it's a list of dealers that are considered to be trustworthy - they will not scam you and will ship you the watch you ordered, not something cheaper and of lower quality.
A link to the trusted dealers was given in the post above, spend some time reading up on the watch model you want before choosing a dealer. Budget makes a big difference - a $500 rep is not the same as a $200 rep in terms of quality.

My budget is just that, higher end Replica. From everything I've done, read, and wrapped my brain around-it's leaking the word Breitling lol, I found the watch on TrustyTime which I believe is Andrew's? Sent him a message first and a strap request change if they can do it, so fingers crossed by the end of the day my Amex will be a little heavier lol.
(His comes with the default Brown front, tan brown back strap, I'm looking for the "luxury" edition strap replica I guess you could call it lol, see attarched) Thanks for the warm welcome everyone, hope to show it off in the coming months!

Lower your expectations for this model. Even high end replicas of this specific Breitling model has lots of flaws, mainly due to movement restriction.

Rep leather strap is usually trash and needs to be swapped

All in all more reading and research my friend! The members in the thread have given you good advice.

Oh, I mean the ones that pop up in the Ads feed, any knowledge on them?

Oh well that's a kick in the pants as most of the people I've been talking to are quoting yes they can get it, but 2-4 weeks, and none will go below $480 plus shipping.

Nope, RWI doesn't control advertisements shown on the site. I know it's weird but do NOT buy from that ad link. Re-read my guide in my signature or the intro posts you got when you arrived.

Where your daughter is
Just to add more pictures of this model because it is beautiful. The model you're considering is BLS on Trusty's site right?

Looking at all the BLS models on prior sales of M2M section BLS makes pretty decent versions of the Premier. Remember all had flaws (thickness as in 17+mm thick, sunken date, etc) but it should have decent finish, good crystal, not sure about BLS AR coating and they should feel good on the wrist if you're ok with that.
These are GF version (not made anymore and GF is no more for Breitlings) - Couldn't find pics of BLS model on M2M you're interested in.

There are a ton of other prior M2M sales posts of BLS Premiers but not the Rose gold version so I didn't post them. Good luck and I hope you enjoy your watch.

Hey thank you very much! Yeah, unlike a lot of folks, I love weight on my wrist, and you want to put a 50mm face on? Bring it on lol! I love leather straps, have always, always admired Breitling, and rose gold is one of my favorites (even have it worked into my wedding band 25 years ago).

Hey you and others really seem to know your stuff. I'm down to two versions. Can you help me with the difference, and is the price difference worth it?

Option 1: $418 Premier B01 Chronograph 42mm SS/LE Beige Dial BLSF V2 A7750 Mod
Option 2: $468 Breitling - Premier B01 Chronograph 42 RG/LE Wht GF V2 Asia 7750

Thank you (and anyone that wants to chine in please!) For all your help. Think after I get through my first purchase, I can breathe better on my future ones! (Have two more Rose Gold Breitlings I want as well lol).

GF is no longer made so you can only go with BLSF.

7750 modified replicas are fine but if you're expecting to play with the chrono alot you will break the watch etc. And it's quite thick. Also avoid gold plated reps as your first replica.

Use google to help you search more for forum opinions.



Lastly, I reiterate, please read the guides and do research. Members are helpful but we cannot answer questions every time you have something. You will start the ordering process and have a million questions more, so please read the intro guides linked in the new members area and also my guide.
