no better pics on ebay, Bnewbie; enlarged it as much as possible.

0 feedback seller & no reserve, quite sure this is fraudulent.

seller talks about accepting paypal but actually only offers Skrill, the rebranded moneybookers ....

:guns: , but is it enough to report ?

Date window is clearly too wide - clear enough relative to Breitling on the dial.

Reported - "Despite bad photos, date window is too wide, typical of the 'quality' fake of this model."

Reported with detailed explanation and links to gens and reps.
It's good to have 1000 characters for report. :)

different seller, different watch, same scam, reported:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Breitling-Bentl ... 3544wt_922

black face and a perfect set of papers and box, but a fake watch.
mentioning paypal in the listing, but offering only Skrill/moneybookers,
wording VERY similar to the last scam attempt, sure it is the same guy.

pics try to cover up the wider date window, but still visible:

My call is fake. The date window is hard to judge but the bezel looks wrong - the side of the bezel is too square and lacks the bevelling and deep notching of the gen. As a result the cross-hatched pattern looks nearly twice as wide as the real one.

Compare to a real one on Blowers web site:
