another typical example of fake "triple date moonphase Breitlings", very often on offer from Turkey (although this seller invented the "Roma, Turkey" item location). Shockingly, these fakes sell like crazy, typically for around US$ 1,000 !!!!

"tells":
dial clearly repainted, month/day in Turkish
wrong reference number "280-20"
No period correct Breitling serial number
Valjoux 90 not used by Breitling for triple date moonphase complications

as always, please correct me if/when I go wrong and please add whatever I have missed to mention ?

It seems these non authentic moonphases are prevalent... that's why I tend to stay away from them! :D
