Sorry but this site is dedicated to the genuine article, and fakes are hated with a passion here. A lot of time is spent removing fakes from eBay so you won't find any information regarding where to buy fakes from anyone here.

However, there are plenty of financial options out there for getting the real thing (including simply saving up), and if you hang around long enough hopefully you'll see why buying a fake is a really bad idea.

Welcome to Breitlingsource.com. This site is full of valuable information :lingsrock:

Buy a replica if you must, but you will eventually regret it. I am currently saving for a Breitling and I know it will be worth every sacrifice I have made. May I suggest starting a watch fund and save a little at a time. I know times are tough, so it might take a while, but I can assure you you will not regret getting a genuine Breitling.

BTW- Some AD's are offering 0% interest for a year. One of my local AD's just announced this yesterday. :o

Simple answer is there currently isn't a replica of this watch and there never will be. It would not be commercially possible to modify the Asian 7750 movement so as to have the running seconds at 3 plus a date window at 6.

You can spend up to $1000 on a crap replica. For less money you can get a genuine used model like the Colt. And get your money back when you sell it!

Treat yourself to the real Chono-matic when you get your 4th stripe and can afford it! :lol:
