And yes, this valet tray is one of their best giveaways. Nice!

And for the really big spenders, they’ll offer you a ride with the Breitling formation aerobatic team. The L-39 is a nice little jet, a bit slow off the mark but I’ve found them to be a nice aerobatic platform once at speed.

Well,I do not by Breiltling for the "gifts".
Just saying it is a nice thing they do.And do not Jump of airplanes hoping my watch or bag survive.

OK cool. The woman in the shop took my address so maybe I'll be getting it in the near future.

BUSA surprised me with this in the mail today. Bought a special order Navi 46mm from one of our trusted trf greys. When AD recieved from Switzerland, they drop shipped to me and must have provided my mailing address (office) to BUSA. Maybe through warranty? Either way a very nice gesture, considering rolex or any other watch brand has never done this for me.

A brand that actually cares and appreciates its customers. Sounds like the direct opposite of Rolex these days.

Those gifts are pretty cool! I bought a new SOH from an AD a couple months ago, but haven’t received any gifts from Breitling.

In order to receive your gift you have to submit the registration card to BUSA. This card is found in the warranty paperwork folder. If it not there ask the AD if they submitted it for you. In you can't find the registration card, contact BUSA, I believe that they will accept a photocopy of the electronic warranty card along with your name and address. Good Luck!

Thank you! The AD submitted it. I’ll check in with BUSA.

I am not sure Breitling is still sending gifts. I purchased 3 Breitlings last year and got no gifts. This includes a platinum Navitimer 806. They may have stopped the program.

I purchased a Superocean II yesterday and my AD said I’d receive a cap from BUSA. I filled in my name and address on a card that he was going to send them so I think they are still doing it.

This is so much cooler than begging someone to sell you a watch at msrp after spending thousands just to get the opportunity, makes me want a navitimer

Breitling has sent me a lot of fun stuff for purchasing new watches once you send in the registration card. Enhances the experience of purchasing new my miles, makes you feel special and important versus other brands where you are just a number. Recently got a back pack (yesterday) and a coin valet.

Even though it makes no rational sense, reading this thread kind of makes me want to more seriously start considering Breitling. I doubt I would ever wear or use a lot of this schwag, but the mere gesture makes it seem like the brand really appreciates its customers.
