Is there a more common fake deployant style? I have seen both in same size with seemingly credible authenticity? I have seen some bad fakes with wings etched on. Can you follow the same rule that stamped should have little or no imprint on interior? I know this is a relatively minor item, but would rather spend the money on a real one versus a fake. Thanks for the insight :lingsrock:

I haven't seen as many raised variants, but post pictures here before you commit.

I think that this is the link - http://www.ebay.com/itm/270840133106?ru ... 3D1&_rdc=1

From those photos I'm not convinced either way.

Yup, I was attaching the photos as you were replying. Thanks. Apparantly I ended up with this so, I'll let you know when I receive it. Again, for $125, would be a good deal I think (if real).

Very suspect - the logo imprint looks OK (but they were copied quite well towards the end of that variation), but the Breitling wording doesn't look right. Hard to be 100% from the photos, but I'd get it to an AD as soon as it arrives to be sure.

FAKE! :yeahthat The Breitling font is absolutely off, the impression edges are very soft and the mechanism flimsy. I will include detailed photo and name of eBay vendor shortly as he is listing the same with same pics on eBay for $450!!!!!! :guns: :guns: :guns:
