Glad to have found this forum. I'd like to buy my first pre-owned Breitling and am concerned about fakes. Looking forward to learning from all of you. Any advice is welcome.
thanks!

here you learn quick, especially if you make an expensive failure !:) if you use ebay, never ever buy from south american sellers, those watches are generally fabricated. If you like something post it here I am sure the senior members will advise you with their experience and comment on it. Otherwise there are not really things to mention on text hence there are hundreds of models and in some time era inconsistant production.
welcome and enjoy your time here.

Enjoy your time here!

Have a look on my site (link below) for some basic tips on spotting fakes and always post links/pics in the replica section where we can all have a look.

Welcome to BreitlingSource!

The advice on SouthAmerica only applies to vintage pieces, not contemporary ones. Sharkmouth's site is superb and just be sure to post anything that you are looking at in the replica section before committing and we'll set yuou straight.
