I want to make an offer for this one:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mens-Breitling- ... 3a7964502b

any advise? Also why on some stainless steel pilot bracelet sometimes you see some inscription "Duog" and on some other there are no inscription at all on the inside of the bracelet. Are they fake?

Thanks

It's real.

Duog is the old short code for the end links (prior to the numbering convention) and was short for Duograph. The full code was CHRONO / DUOG (Chronomat / Duograph)

Thank you very much for your help. So if I don't see any inscription on the bracelet is it fake? What are the new markings? Thanks again for your help

If you don't see it then ask for photos showing the end links. There are a lot of different codes for modern bracelets, all in the 3 numbers followed by one letter style.
