Hi to everybody. It is my first post and I am fan but (completely) novice about Breitling. There is an auction running on ebay http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... 1438.l2648 Could someone tell if it is about a real or fake ? Thanks for the attention and help From Thessaloniki, Greece |

Franken at best. Looks good at first glance, although the lack of a caseback shot is casuse for concern. However there is a glaring problem with it - anyone spot it before I give it away? |

contacted seller re caseback shot, but "could not supply a picture because all his watches are in the bank safe". but admits there is no ref. no. on the watch .... the "original" dial is clearly refinished, and not too well. forgot the "Swiss Made T" bridge marking seems wrong. dislike |

There are only 30 teeth on the minute counter but 45 minutes on the dial ok, caught me on this for the second time, never assume somebody will be stupid enough to wrongly refinish/fake a dial for a frankenwatch, will count teeth in the future. though missing the "swiss made" on the dial is bad enough
