I'm really interested in buying this brand new Navitimer World "with papers". My concern is the COSC certificate doesn't seem to include the serial number. The warranty card looks legit but I'm definitely no expert. I asked the seller how they obtained the watch and this is the response I received.

"I can completely understand your concern. I have a friend who works at a place that sells Breitling watches. Every year they are able to purchase one watch from Breitling at a good price. He had enough watches and did not want for himself so allowed me to get one with his once a year perk. I bought the watch for my fiancé as a wedding gift for our wedding in June. Due to some unfortunate issues I need to sell the watch. I purchased the watch in Sept. The warranty on the card says it is good for 2 years from Sept 2013(when I purchased the watch from Breitling). It has all the paper work and authenticity certificate. I love the watch and do not want to sell it as I got it for such a great price. The watch has never even been unclasped nor has the plastic casing come off. The only time it has come out of box was when I needed to take pics of the certificate and look at warranty etc. I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions."

Do you'll think this is an authentic watch?

It's a real one.

Indeed strange the COSC certificate does not have the serial number nor the electronic chip to activate the warranty. So how was it activated? I would ask for a pic of the case back with individual number and compare it to the warranty card.

Because the fake isn't very good and is easy to spot. This one's real.
