I am the one that bought the watch. I had no idea of this resource. The vendor is taking it back. can you clue me in on why it is fake? without opening the back, I could not tell. I know Omega watches well.

The most obvious giveaway is the subdial at 6 o'clock.

Here is the report I sent to Ebay that they did nothing about :

Fake Breitling Chronomat Model ref A13050:

- Invalid model ref number, A12050 (obviously a typo of A13050)
- Subdials too close together and have wrong markings
- 'B' logo on seconds hand is incorrect.
