Is this a real superocean 44 with abyss blue markings? Thinking about picking it up just wanted to check with you guys first. ![]() |

Haven't seen a good fake of this yet, but I thought that the 1s on the date were simple lines and these look to have serifs at the top which I have never seen. |

Date font is definitely different to those on the Superocean 44's on Breitling's website. |

The number 1 in the date should be a straight line. Vote fake. |

Fake - between 60 and 15 on the bezel are big round circles on the picture above. Doesn't tie in with the picture on Breitling's website. |

Too recent model for me to know. |

My vote is real. Aside from the serif on the date, it compares well to this viewtopic.php?f=15&t=38302 |

I think serif should be on 11, like on other Aeromarines. 11 without serif was on much older wheels. |

He is stating that this is a new watch maybe a newer model with update date wheel? |
