Can't tell what the inner portion of the stamping says on this.
What does snake skin say on the inside of the band anyway?



Edit: Well I found out it's not Cuir for sure.
Same seller with another fake here. Both reported.

They are both real. They were marked cuir (icon is like calf, but with pattern).
Just found 160X (green one) in 2000 Handbook.

I don't think I follow BN. Doesn't the band you posted say Croco?

The "Breitling" portion of this sure seems to be off. Maybe just an error at the factory?

Yes, because it's Croco (this one is Cuir).
Misprint is QC issue.
