Hello and nice too meet you all, not sure if im a proud owner of a breitling or a breitling fake? ive just been left this my grandparents who apparently has had it a fair few years (strap well worn) and im hoping once i get a new battery, clean it up and reduce the strap size that it will look good on my arm just for when im at work on working in the garage on the racecar. If its a fake its going in the loft ha ha.

But what model its a real one is it, i cant see anything like it anywhere.

And just too show how spooky this is, i never knew my grandparents but this is my current work watch a seiko kinetic autorelay that ive had for 10 years and wear 24hrs a day unless ive got the expensive RW on and it looks very similar, we have the same taste - im just hoping he buys real like me.

Dont cringe at the scratches. ill post my shiny watches up later

I'm going to go ahead and say that Breitling is fake.

It's a cheap fake that looks nothing like a real model.

Generic looking fake chronograph which probably appears with various watch brand logos on the dial.

Looks like the design was roughly based on a Tag Link Chronograph.
