I would like to say a heartfelt 'thank you !!' To all of you who still take the time to post fakes and frankens here, report them to ebay and in some cases even contact the seller (and we all know how well they take those communications and heads up)

The people that (still) do that are at the core of teaching newer collectors about whats right and whats wrong

I know how much time and effort goes into that , when I first started you guys were a tremendous help and I posted and pointed out the fakes and frankens as well but over time I just lost the spark to keep doing that .

So Fred, Craig, Wayne , Roff, Paul and all the others that are still flagging up those atrocities


Thank you

I'm not into buying vintage watches (or fakes!!), but I read the evaluation posts. I'm amazed by the knowledge and dedication of the BS members who take on the challenge of monitoring the web for the benefit of less knowledgeable (and/or lazy) buyers. :bow: :bow: :bow:

Truly BS is a valuable source of verified informations, thanks to the devotion of its knowledgeable posters, and IMHO not only for vintage. Whenever I need info on breitling world I always know where to search and find answers, so I want to join this thank you post.

Agreed. Hundreds (thousands?) of years of combined collecting experience gathered here. An invaluable resource for those who want to learn. Hats off and thanks.
