The only way that you are going to know for sure that it is 100% genuine Breitling is to send it to Breitling and pay them to service it so that they strip it right down.

Given that the likelihood of someone having taken a perfectly good watch and ripped the guts out and replaced them with generic parts is close to zero I wouldn't worry about it.

I read a post on here the other day about someone that just boughr a breitling off eBay and I'm pretty sure it was from "Infiniti watches". He said item description says vvs1 factory diamond bezel but when he received the watch, it wasn't factory nor was it vvs1.

I can't find the post for some reason so don't hold me on it. Just going by memory. If my memory is right than I doubt that Black SA is brand new.
