Ad is here: http://www.finn.no/finn/torget/tilsalgs ... e=29825827 Ad, translated: Breitling A17035. 2001 mod. The watch is in great shape. 6,75" bracelet. Diving watch (500m) Recently serviced by a watchmaker, had some "splints" changed. The watch is accurate. The photos are objective, and should speak for themselves. Can most easily be contacted via email. Will only swap for an old Rolex DateJust or a 2005 Omega Seamaster. New or used: Used Images:     Is it real? |

This doesn't look good, TBH. A17035 is the early Colt Automatic, which looks nothing like the photo. |

As far as I can see, there are several issues with this watch: The reference number (A17035) and other information, as well as the photo, do not match. According to the seller, the watch is from 2001, but the model referenced was only made until 1998. The watch face says SuperOcean, but I can find no SuperOcean with that face and bezel. The back says Colt Automatic. While Breitling has produce three different models specifically called Colt Automatic, none of them look like this one. Not to forget, the seller does not even mention papers, tags or boxes. Looks fake to me. |

If you notice, it doesn't say, "Superocean," it says "ColtOcean" on the dial. |
