[size=150][color=#0000FF]High Guys, new to the site.

Just bought a Fighter A13330 and was wondering how many of the series was made.

Have not yet got it in my clammy little hands, still waiting for the nice French postman to visit me, but I been checking and double checking that I have not bought a fake as I have no papers with it. The photos are really clear so I have been able to check it against the same watch on other web photos.

My last :lingsrock: was purchased from new, now gone to help pay for this one, so this is very new a nervous experience for me.
Can anybody help me out

There's no way to now how many of a particular model were produced unless it's a numbered LE because Breitling doesn't release production numbers.

The fake of the Fighers is fairly easy to spot - 1/4 second chrono ticks instead of 1/5 and a spelling mistake on the caseback.

Hey Sharkmouth thanks for the info.
A GREAT service you are providing here for us less knowledgeable fans of this great watch.

Using my wives magnifying glass and the excellent pictures the add used, I can say, yes mine is good.

To be honest,if I had joined this web site before I bought my :lingsrock: ,I do not think I would have gone near any sort of Ebay site other than an official :lingsrock: dealers.
