How old it can be how do you think? Is it worth 1100$ if mechanism will show a good condition? Thanks |

I believe that it was a simple design change during the model's production period. |

Well, went to see the watch. The Breitling itself original, the bezel a little loose, but was not sure about the strap: light, no numbers, and the clasp definetily fake, as made of thin metal without logo on it. Other strange thing - the antireflective glass: gets dirty very quick. One touch - and you have to clean it as fingerprints are visible. Still thinking is it woth to buy it without a strap for 1100 dollars. |
