I am new to this forum. I purchased this Breitling from an individual on craigslist and would like your opinion on its authenticity. I had two jewelers look at it in person and both said it looked real, however, I am second doubting myself after reading these forums. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

The serial number on the back is xxxxxx

bnewbie - thanks for responding. I have another question regarding authenticity:

(1) How do I determine if the diamond bezel is factory OEM? After careful inspection, I noticed a very small "B" engraved on the side of the bezel just to the left of the 12 hour marker. Is that something that Breitling does on all of its Factory Diamond bezels? I have attached a picture for your review.

Once again, appreciate your input and I'm really enjoying this forum - it makes me want to buy another Breitling watch!

You are welcome.
Your bezel is OEM, but diamonds are not.
They were put on the factory bezel outside of Breitling.
SA OEM diamond bezel has two rows of stones and comes with a certificate.
