http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... K:MEWAX:IT I know, Roff, reporting that makes no sense. But as the seller asks for a starting bid of US$ 3,000 and a BIN of 3,600, maybe a potential buyer would look in this forum before he grabs it ? |

Reported because I was bored, will be amazed if it's removed. |

If you'll explain why it's fake, I'll gladly report it. |

Double casebacks were used on gold watches when the gold back was very thin (to reduce cost) and a steel back was needed underneath the gold one for integrity of the case. Breitling never used double casebacks because their gold cases were thick enough to not require it. |
