Riccardi Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Hello, I recently bought a breitling watch box on the website http://www.watch88.com which has the same supplier as the websites of Josh and Andrew I think. Nevertheless, the quality of papers is not so great (COSC certificate with plenty of spelling mistakes, and now warranty papers...). Do you guys know where I can buy a good replica watch box breitling with full papers (COSC certificate, international warranty,...) ? I saw new models of breitling boxes on josh and andrew websites but I don't know about the papers... Other question : when you order some watches, what shipping do you choose (the safer one) ? I first did it by EMS but customs sent me an advertisement and know I do it by http://www.zj-express.com which send first from China to Dubai and then from Dubai to Belgium by DHL and I don't have problems... Thanks in advance for your answers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yodap Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 I asked the same thing about half year ago, and everyone said I'm a scammer... That's what everyone thinks when you are new and ask a question like this. I'd still like to get papers for my watch, but no way. They aren't available. If only a gen owner could scan his paper, remove the COSC no. and upload it here... That would be GREAT! Although, it would be also a BIG help for scammers selling fakes as genuine on eBay, so I understand why this isn't happening. Any gen owners to chime in? Greetz.

P4GTR Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 i know it may sound like a cliche.. but why would u need a good quality paper for? i mean box i understand.. but papers? +1. Why do people want these? Isn't that taking the "Its real, I swear!" thing with your buddies, a little too far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riccardi Posted August 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 No, I think everybody on this website try to have a watch as close as possible as a genuine one. It's not a question of cheating someone but you want exactly the same as a genuine but for the cheapest price available. it's not cool to have a watch box with papers on which it's written : Contr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krpster Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 I would agree that the paper seem a bit superfluous. It's one thing to try to get the hardware as close to gen as possible but I cannot see end function or purpose of a COSC certificate if the device itself is not. No real purpose IMHO. To each their own I guess. Good luck in your search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smc Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 It's one thing to buy a nice rep. I don't buy boxes but hey what the heck. Papers is going too far IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayward Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Could never see the need for branded single watch boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramerica2 Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Could never see the need for branded single watch boxes. I do... IMO it's the nicest way to put them while not wearing them, unless of-course you got dozens of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bike Mike Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 The COSC certificate is actually embossed as well has the warranty number hole punched in the upper left corner. The number on the COSC actually corresponds with the stamped number movements winding bridge. So what would be the point in having a blank COSC? You could put in any number you wish, but that is not going to correspond with any number on the watch. The warranty book also has the same hole punching as the COSC with the warranty cert. number and Authorized AD. All of these number are interlaced with the watches Serial number and COSC number. You could ink in the warranty book, but you would not be able to do the hole punching to spell out the AD. I agree with most around here that there is no need for anyone to have these documents. The documents only serve the purpose of getting the watch serviced and show its authenticity. I was at my local AD last week to purchase a Rodium face Chronomat and watched them confiscate a gentleman SA while he was trying to pull some BS story with them about losing his papers. The sales manager handed the watch to his tech. who promptly removed the case back and confirmed the watch was a rep. The guy then had the nerve to point to my wrist and call out my Blue face SA (I purchased form the same AD 1 month earlier.) as being a fake as he was a expert in spotting them. They promptly called security and had the gentleman escorted off the property. Nice to get back in touch with some of you guys again. I have not been too active in the hobby since the closing of TRC.

chiefwiggum Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Only one reason anyone would want counterfeit papers to go with a replica watch and that is to try and dupe some poor gullible mug. In my opinion people that ask such things shouldn't be allowed to continue being members, they bring replica ownership into disrepute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being able to find a watchsmith who can service your rep, so a Breitling dealer will not steal your multi-hundred dollar property. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if someone is dumb enough to walk into a AD with a rep trying to BS their way into getting paperwork or the piece serviced, they deserve to have their piece confiscated. After all it is counterfiet. I am lucky as I have 3 watchsmiths in my area that will service anything you bring them. One I have become good friends with and he has serviced both my rep and gen PAMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
