Hi guys

Sorry, i didn't properly introduced myself, but i will in the other thread :)

Need some help. My friend asked me for advice regarding Avenger Blacksteel. For reference i used some pictures from watchobserver.com. Here is what i have found. The spacing between Breitling Logo and the buckle end is too small. Reference number font on the caseback is too thin, and "3000" limited number is to fat. Also, the axle of the sub dials are not painted, but i have found two versions of this dial, one of witch has painted and the other one not.
Also, the PVD on the buckle looks kinda worn off, and the rubber strap looks ok.

What do you think?
Thanx |>

Agreed. There is a good BS fake, but not with this LE number.

I would also say genuine - the lume dots look too flat to be the replica. However, I would not buy without paperwork proving authenticity.

For info, the replicas have individual LE numbers, ie they're not all 1234/3000.
