Hello everyone and thanks for welcoming me to your site. I need some help identifying a watch I purchased at a yard sale. Yes a yard sale. Everything that I have read to help in identifying has left me scratching my head. First of all on the back it is marked "Japan Movt" in the center. Around the edge is:LIMITEE EDITION-1000 CHRONOMAT-BERIE-A12050-1.
This misspelling of the word Limited(limitee) was my second warning. The wings look right according to article I read on spotting a fake. The face is green and the band is two tone gold link. I really need some help. Thanks in advance.

Okay now I have no clue on how to load pictures for you to view. It says they are too big and I don't know how to re-size them.

Japanese movement doesn't necessarily mean fake, but only a few models (e.g. pluton) had them.

You can post pics by clicking the 'add picture' button in the full editor when you respond.

or just upload to tinypic and post the link.

I'm guessing though it is a fake something like this one? http://www.breitlingsource.com/phpBB2/v ... =9&t=31962

Not quite like that one. Mine does not have the Breitling emblem on the back.Nor ,does it have the additional timepiece on the band. I'll try to figure how to load a picture. Am I allowed to send the pics to your personal email address? That would be a lot easier.

Isn't sounding promising sorry.

Just go to http://tinypic.com/ and upload the pics and then post the links that tinypic will provide for you :-)

Based on the description, the watch is fake.
