There have been 3 versions of the B-1, all available in black, blue and grey.

The B-1 replaced the Chronospace and was itself replaced by the Airwolf.

Sorry, it's a fake. The real a68062 looks like this - http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... al_28.html |

There are two versions of this watch. (New) one points your link (it also refers by two numbers: a68062, a68362). I wonder if anyone saw or have picture of the previous version of this watch..? From a back it looks very like http://www.watchfinder.co.uk/Breitling/ ... watch.aspx but again this is B-1. I am amazed by number of replicas bretling has. Anyway that's why I put macro real photos to check verify it by details. Maybe it is possible to identify it by opening it??? |

There's no need to open it, it's fake. The caseback is common among many fakes. You can see that the dial looks nothing like the real model. |

Just to confirm Roff's words, the B-1 style case back with the model ref A68062 and serial number 1111 is found on lots of different cheap fakes. A search of this section shows how common it is. http://www.breitlingsource.com/phpBB2/search.php?keywords=1111&submit=Search |

Thanks, Sharkmouth. I'm assuming none of them looked like the OP's watch.

Quote: I'm assuming none of them looked like the OP's watch. Not in the slightest! Other than the changes in the wording, they're identical.
