Hi guys, I am new here, but I read this forum for several days, excellent place for real watch lovers.

Now I need a question, I got Breitling Superocean heritage chronograph, in one weird situation. Last Sunday, one elder Russian man, fell from the rock in the sea, and I was there and of course I jumped to take him out. I did that only because I felt sorry for him, but then guy took off his watch, and gave it to me, as a present. As you assume, this is that watch.

so I need a confirmation, to check is this thing real or fake.

Sorry for poor pictures, I had no sunlight :)

So was this a "purchase" as your title says or a "gift" to a good samaritan?

A gift, of course, but the way it end up on my wrist is weird, I did not buy it, I am not native english speaker :) that is maybe the reason I use strange words to describe something

Crna Gora je kao i Hrvatska na najljepšem moru na svijetu. :)
Ovaj sat koji si dobio je original, taj model ima 3 replike, ali na tvoju sreću Rus voli prave stvari.

OP is from Monte Negro, they have lot of rich Russians on the riviera.

Hey guys, just one more question.

I don't know anything about my watch, what should I do, maintenance is my concern? I read about toothbrush and soap, do you have any better solution for cleaning watch? I'm currently using a cloth designed for sunglasses
