Hello, I am new to this board and to luxury watches. My antique shop gets so many fakes that I get a headache! We bought this in a bulk lot of jewelry. The other pieces were all 14K gold and real. No fakes.
Is this too good to be true?!? Thank you. steven

:shock:


Did you look at the link that Elwyn provided.

The colour is the least of the issues with this watch. Bezel, subdials, dial layout, etc, etc, etc are all wrong.

They never had a dial that looked anything like that. The dial is a compilation, if you will, of multiple models of Breitlings.

Olympus:

Mulliner Tourbillon:

Navitimer:

The dial doesn't exist in reality.

Jeez. I see what you mean. I had never seen one before. It was quite heavy, but in PERFECT condition. I'll smash it up......I appreciate the help and I hope to be back. Steven
