| Post subject: | First Breitling - is it a fake? |
Hi all, http://www.ebay.com/itm/Breitling-Chron ... 4cfc62252d As stated in the title, I do not currently own any Breitling watches, but this one really caught my eye. I have not yet paid for it as I want to be sure it is real before having it shipped all the way from Singapore. My concerns are the following: 1 - I cannot find a watch like it anywhere, so either it is very rare (which I doubt considering the price) or very unpopular 2 - It looks kind of like the AVI/co-pilot, but the bezel has a "12" where all others have a triangle (http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... d_132.html) 3 - I cannot identify the movement After more searching, it appears to be a Venus 170! 4 - It looks like the face says only "Swiss"; every other Breitling I have seen says "Swiss Made" Potentially a franken as some bits do look legit? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!! Also, if it is real, any idea what the model and vintage are? Thanks! Chris |

Would have been interested in that before someone ruined it - nice looking piece. |

Thanks all, that's what I thought. Bummer, it's a sharp watch. |
