ThreeHoler Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 Current and former KC-10 people: The 2d ARS is putting together a group buy of KC-10 Breitling Aerospace watches. Peggy Ulmer is coordinating everything. She does not have a BODN account, so please contact her via KC10Spouse at gmail. There are currently 13 confirmed people in the group and we need at least 12 more to make the order. The deadline to order is 15 Jun. This should have the watches arriving in time for Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/Festivus. The price is $2757 (40% off retail) and the payment is due in full prior to the order. If you wish to have the watch shipped to you, it will cost a bit more. Please contact Peggy for all details.
ViperStud Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 Just a nuggets up - I've ordered two watches from them and just received my chronospace last month. The aerospace took a year and the chronospace took almost 18 months, but they claimed there were extenuating circumstances there and gave us a $100 rebate. If you think you'll have them in time for Christmas you might need to re-cage your expectations. Good luck with the order.
ThreeHoler Posted May 9, 2013 Author Posted May 9, 2013 The first order was placed in September 2012 and arrived April 2013. This is the second order.
Notch Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) I was the POC for a Mildenhall order of watches. The order took about 8 months total. Just be ready for that timeline. The watches are amazing though. Hopefully it won't take that long! Edited May 9, 2013 by Notch
Techsan Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 Almost 3Gs for a watch? I wish I had that kind of disposable coin laying around for a watch. 1
Ram Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 I don't get it...Do you tanker guys wave your hands at the bar to practice tanker turn-ons to your watches (instead of BFM)? 1
Notch Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 I don't get it...Do you tanker guys wave your hands at the bar to practice tanker turn-ons to your watches (instead of BFM)? What does this have to do with anything? Something wrong with being proud of what you do? Something else wrong with a pilot wearing a breitling? Stop trolling. 3
Termy Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Do it. I got one in the B-Course many years ago and it has been worth every penny many times over. It's been to war on my wrist and it will probably be the coolest heirloom I pass on.
billy pilgrim Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Do it. I got one in the B-Course many years ago and it has been worth every penny many times over. It's been to war on my wrist and it will probably be the coolest heirloom I pass on. I would second that. I was hesitant to drop $3k on a watch but I would highly recommend it!
GoAround Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Almost 3Gs for a watch? I wish I had that kind of disposable coin laying around for a watch. Maybe if you stopped paying online gaming fees for Elf Quest you'd have the coin to buy a real watch.
xaarman Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Any chance of hopping in on this with wings on the back but normal front (for those of us non-KC-10 pilots who are interested.)
BFM this Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Any chance we can merge this thread with the Omega thread and move it to the spouses forum? 1
DuckHunter Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Any chance of hopping in on this with wings on the back but normal front (for those of us non-KC-10 pilots who are interested.) I'd also be interested if this was a possibility.
JarheadBoom Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Any chance of hopping in on this with wings on the back but normal front (for those of us non-KC-10 pilots who are interested.) I'd also be interested if this was a possibility. Doubtful. I know the last time I was seriously looking into the Breitling -10 watch (few years ago), there was NO option for personalization/changes.
Beaver Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Any chance we can merge this thread with the Omega thread and move it to the spouses forum?I question the fighter pilot that doesn't appreciate big ass watches. Sent from my KFTT using Tapatalk HD
Champ Kind Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) Did you Gucci guys have a POC at Breitling you used to get a custom order started? I'd like to email them and find out if they have any C-130 designs. Edit to add: Cue the sundial jokes... Edited March 2, 2014 by Champ Kind 2
Lord Ratner Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 Did you Gucci guys have a POC at Breitling you used to get a custom order started? I'd like to email them and find out if they have any C-130 designs. I bet if you have $60K+ to send their way, they have a .25"x.25" silhouette of a herk.

Spoo Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Can I get in on a KC-10 Breitling? I'm thinking of becoming a collector and I figure this thing will be worth some mad jack in a couple years.
HerkStud Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 I'd be interested in this. PM me when you get any info I'd be interested in a Herc on too Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!
