I'm guessing you got the new warranty card and not the e-warranty card with these? Also, the latest box which is basically a travel pouch?

Yes, All 3 have the new electronic CC style warranty card. (Also the Navitimer)The AD used a QR code printed on the card to register for warranty. My old SO had the big computer module looking card. SO's are all in a normal box with the leather travel pouch. Navitimer is in a riveted box and the same leather travel pouch.

As a note, you can create a passport account with Breitling and scan the QR code on your warranty card and get all kinds of information about your watch now. Pretty cool.

Agreed - it's very cool. When I first heard of the idea I was on the fence but it's certainly for the better. It's nice to have an actual card (like a credit card). I'm also an accessory collector so I've got a lot from various brands and got my hands on two of those e-warranty cards with the COSC certificate. I'm glad I did this because they've since been phased out but I'm all for the new method now.

Usually companies don't give you the time of day for a pre-owned watch, at least from my experience. Either service it or don't. But Breitling was very open and easy, providing service history over the phone with the serial number.

That simple act helped them win me over. You should take a group shot with them all! Also, I miss the days where John Travolta was a brand ambassador.
