We are sorry to hear you are so dissatisfied with your experience. We do indeed offer sizing, however, you had asked that his watch be sized to 8". The watch would just barely fit an 8-inch wrist as-is, and therefore was noted that sizing is not required.
We are sorry that it took half a day to have the bracelet resized. To add or remove one link would require unscrewing 4 screws with a jeweler's screwdriver.
With regard to authenticity, the timepiece is, of course, 100% authentic (as evidenced by the fact that a "Breitling Store" sized it for you; they don't size inauthentic timepieces). If you have any doubts about authenticity, the main Breitling HQ is in your area (in Danbury CT) and we enthusiastically encourage you to have your timepiece authenticated there for peace of mind. We will be happy to provide you with their address.
No watch seller online (anywhere in the world) can offer a manufacturer's warranty, including us. This is indeed posted in our warranty policies linked to on every single page of our website, including search pages:

No new watch purchased online, through any vendor, through any sales channel, through any outlet, at any time, will come with a manufacturer's warranty, without exception. Had your friend purchased the exact same model, he would pay $4200 + tax for the item you paid $2875 for.
We are sorry you feel dissatisfied enough to have left such a poor review. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or require any assistance in any way. Thank you.
