Hi Guys,
First off all, i am new on this forum and a fan of breitling watches. I am currently looking to buy a breitling skyland avanger from 2008. This will be my first breitling so im really not an expert i was hoping you guys can help me identifying below breitling as a real one. Its not sold by an AP but a private seller so i really want to make sure i am not buying garbage... :cry:

Also what would be a decent price for this watch? I can get it for 2100 euro, which seems to me like decent price. then again im not the expert :P. thank you so far.

Looks OK to me but I would want to see the COSC/warranty serial matches the watch.

I thought the same at first but settled on they just about looked OK.

As always, paperwork is essential for the Skyland.

100% agree. Could be OK but no worth the risk without full paperwork.
