USELES Breitling Watch. Ripoff service cost!!

A year ago I wrote a complaint about my unreliable Breitling Super Avenger watch on this site.<br> <br> In short: after several calls and emails (still have record of it) the after sales manager , Mari Ludick of Breitling SA eventually quoted me between R2000 to R5500 to service the watch depending what is wrong with it.<br> <br> I found this to be exorbitant as I was informed that the watch needs to be serviced every couple of years (at what future cost?)<br> <br> If I knew at the time of purchase this is the case I would never have bought this watch. I now have a R70 000 white elephant gathering dust in a drawer as it is totally useless as a time piece.<br> <br> I have a R200 plastic watch that keeps better time and is older than than the Breitling.<br> <br> DISGUSTING! To say the least!!<br> <br> Edward Gray
