From what I’ve read GF seems to have the best rep. Just wondering about the QC. Maybe Lucy.

Lucy @truetime168 is my go to. She's not as fast as some TDs but I've never had a bad watch from her and as with the GMT I've just got, she went that extra mile. Yes GF have the best rep GMT but not for all Breitlings, depends what you want.

Almost all my watches come from Lucy. She is great at QC and works hard for her customers. @WarRoom She is not fast. You have to be patient. If you are you will be pleased with the watch. If you expect Amazon service you will not be happy. I am talking weeks of waiting, not days. I have never been disappointed with the quality.

Message from Lucy is that she has had 3 members wanting to buy the bracelet version with the correct date font, but there are none left at GF. This may be rectified in the next batch and GF boss is aware but this can't be guaranteed. I would still recommend getting the watch as its a cracker especially with the correct pearl, and the datefont isn't that noticeable and relatively easy to change. Just go for it!

Guys for those of you talking about " Who is best for QC" and all this

A dealer request a watch from the factory, it gets dropped off to them, they get what they are given... they do not get any special treatment and they don't get to pick which watch you get, they can get it and send it back right away.

But to say someone gets better watches than someone else is 100% false

The QC is on you

But also important what the TD accepts/rejects before you get the QCs

Why?

"She" gets away with a LOT.. I'm sure of everyone knew its not a girl they wouldnt be so happy to wait 2 months on a watch, other dealers get slammed for taking a few days to reply buy Lucy seems to have everyone thinking "shes" the best dealer thats lived

men... lol

Tried the gen with bracelet on today at an AD and I have to tell you in terms of look and feel compared to my rep its pretty much indistiguishable
