This one looks real to me as the dial logo looks ok.

Agree with that Adrian - wasn't sure on the pearl, the rider tabs or the date window frame though.

I thought the pearl on the top was supposed to be sunken a little? Also, isn't the top of the anchor supposed to be like a hole (above the B)?

If it's AD sourced then it's going to be OK, but the behaviour you are describing about the 12 and 6 o'clock subdials make no sense - I can't even think how they could happen with a chronograph movement.

Just to clarify - the 12 o'clock subdial never moves and the 6 o'clock subdial never stops moving regardless of whether the central seconds hand is moving right?It's going to need Breitling attention to fix that.

Wait to clarify, the 6 oclock does stop when central seconds is stopped, 9 oclock doesnt, And 12 never moves.

OK, well that's a little better, and I can understand how that could happen - but it's still going to need Breitling to fix.

Good enough for me - if bnewbie says it's real then it's real.

The clarified explanation of the chronograph makes more sense, but if the 12 o'clock subdial is not working then it's broken and needs attention.

The watch is automatic. This means if you don't wear for 42 hours it will stop. Either you use it daily, or have it in a watch winder.

Good luck!!
