Hi. I am looking to buy a used Navitimer Breitling Fighter. I've been reading the sights are spotting replicas and the pics here look pretty authentic. Any thoughts please on whether this watch is an authentic one or a replica? Further, the case back has two sets of numbers, the A13330 id and No 1611. In other pictures of case backs for Breitling Fighters, I see a third set of numbers (5 or 6 digits) towards the outer edge of the case back. What is normal for the authentic watches - to have this third set of numbers or not? Thank you.

Definitely real, there are some obvious giveaways on the fake - missing tick markers on the dial and spelling mistake on the caseback.
