Hello watch experts,

I'm just getting into watches and an acquaintance of mine is willing to sell me a Breitling Bentley 6.75, however has no documentation on the authenticity of it. Can anyone help me authenticate the watch? I have attached an image. Can post more if necessary.

Probably need more pics - this is one of the models that's faked a lot, I believe. The face looks pretty good to me, but I thought that these white faces had red dates numerals.
I'm certainly no Bentley expert though...
I'd be wary without docs and box etc.

:welcome: and :real:

The good replica date window is too wide. This one is fine.

Thanks for the input. I have attached additional pictures if someone needs them to further verify.

I noticed that the chronograph second hand gets reset to the 3 sec mark when reset. If real what would be a good purchase price with defect and seeing that the watch seems to be in bad shape but still works. If purchased I plan on having it repaired with a full overhaul.

It's still real.
