All Aerospace models are titanium rather than steel, they have never had any sort of sliderule bezel, the case shape is wrong, etc.

Also, the box set shown with the watch would have accompanied a gold or platinum watch.

I think his pictures of the dial suck; although I do think it is a Gen Chronospace.

Absolutely real. As noted it doesn't look like an Aerospace because it's a first generation Chronospace.

Well I stand corrected. :oops:

You learn something new each day. Maybe I should read the dial a bit better next time.

Thats comical. It was real. I have a gold chronomat and gave the box away with my dads watch so the buyer would have a garage for the chronospace. Its first generation watch from sept 97. He gave me an aerospace completely different watch although the guts are the same. Should have asked questions before judging. It was practicly brand new. I miss the light aerospace though, got an emergency now. I wouldnt put my name out the on a fake by the way. Thats what russian websites are for.
