Hello,

my Breitling Blackbird needs its first service.

Does anybody have recommendations for a service dealer here in the Netherlands?

Or can I just bring it to any authorized dealer and they will forward it to the right service dealer?

The service dealers on the Breitling website are not actually close-by.

Thanks.

I would recommend House of Pertijs in Breda.

Would personally *not* recommend Breitling Koster & Zn, they messed up my watch two times in the past (during service).

brgds,

Richard

Thanks for the tip and the warning.

Have you heard anything about "PAUL VAN ZEELAND JUWELIERS"? It's the same distance from where I live as the House of Pertijs i.e. 1 hours drive. So, I will try and combine it with something interesting to do in that area when I'm going to one of these dealers.

Thanks for the tip.

I actually went there yesterday morning and dropped of my watch and the one of a colleague for service. Was offered a deal for my Blackbird if I bought another new watch. However, I will never give up this watch since it is still one of my favourite Breitlings and more importantly I measured the contractions of my wife with it when she went into labor with our daughter.

I mainly chose this service dealer (over Pertijs) since they explicitly refer to being a Breitling service center on their webpage.

They were very busy and had a nice display of Breitlings. Might get tempted ... .

Have you been there, Raymond?
