Here's a new one for me. I have seen 100s of fake but this one is special. It looks pretty good at first glance but the movement is the new (last 5 years or so) Chinese copy of the Venus cal. 175 with a very official looking signed bridge. Some poor sucker is going to pay a lot for this one! Craig

Next week I am going to list all of the fake vintage Breitlings on ebay - you will be SHOCKED!

That's a worrying trend for sure.

If you are going to list all of the fakes Craig I hope you don't have anything else planned!

Of course you can make it easier on yourself.......

A quick check of Breitling watches on ebay today 1940-1969 had some interesting results. 16 were the real deal, 14 were questionable (a variety of inconsistencies) and 10 were obvious fakes. Here's the list - enjoy! Craig
