Hello, folks! I've been tracking down a Steelfish for some time and stumbled across this one. I'd love a second opinion as to its authenticity. This will be my first Breitling and, naturally, I'd like it to be as close to perfect as possible.
I've conversed with another member of the forum, Sharkman, on another watch forum previously (though not about this watch) and he's given me lots of tips on spotting fakes. I've read the info you folks have so kindly assembled as well, but I figure another set of eyes never hurts.
The seller seems to be pleasant, has some knowledge, and has given what seems to be a very fair price. The watch was purchased in 2008 according to the seller, and will ship with box and booklets, but no COSC certificate. Any feedback the experts around here could offer would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance! -JJ
In addition to these photos, the seller sent another of the caseback with the serial number intact and a shot of the box/booklet bundle. Also, he's offered a 5 day inspection period.
