If you wonder why the old hands say buy at an AD, not via the internet, have a look at these unique pieces for sale! :lol:

Maybe watchesonnet.com don't have the best knowledge of Breitling but they're very good with Photoshop!

And sadly, 99% of uneducated buyers would be fooled.

And Sharky - I think I prefer 'middle aged hand' rather than 'old hand' :lol: :wink:

They are also good at filing off serial numbers. An acquaintance bought a bentley gt racing and numbers were filed off. Watch was genuine, but upsetting. He ended up returning it for a fee! Very upsetting!

I can't imagine what they were thinking. What was the goal here? We can only speculate.

The other funny thing is that their price is way over what you'll pay at an AD.
