I am new so please be kind. How can you claim it has no chronograph when it has the pushers and subdials. I would need to see a video of the watch running to claim it was a faux chrono.
Maybe I am Missing something when its claimed "no chronograph"
I have seen that term used in a number of the rep identication with pushers and subdials as fake but without having a video or having the watch in my hand I couldn't claim it was fake.
I am here to learn so please tell me your secrets.

Sub dials are calender, not for timing

I just looked up the definition of chrongraph and subdials and got the following:
"Chronograph—a watch with additional stopwatch functions. Buttons on the case start and stop the second hand and reset it to zero, and usually several subdials display the elapsed time in larger units."


Can you explainwhat you meant by calendar,not timimg. I also went to the Breitling website and they seems to follow the definition.

The subs on this fake are marked for a perpetual calendar function, not a chronograph (stop watch) as expected. So instead of totalising elapsed minutes and hours, the subdials record the current day of the week and month. These perpetual calendars have subs marked with days of the week or month names (and sometime date as well). Some, like this one are marked numerically, hence subs marked to count up to 7 or 31 are a giveaway.
