Thanks a lot for the explanation, I am learning every day overhere.
Regarding the "Certifie Chronometre" versus "Certified Chronometer", are those perhaps European versus US versions?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Breitling-for ... 1412887244? On first glance you would say it's genuine; 3.7K seller with high feedback score + Box & Papers However the sloppy lume at 30, the date not well centered and certifie chronometre instead of certified chronometer makes me doubt. Can anyone shed a light on this? On Ebay Germany, you can enlarge the pictures; http://www.ebay.de/itm/Breitling-for-Be ... 1412887244? |

Real. The 27B movement is the Bentley version of the 26 found in the Skyracer, which is known to have occasional trouble with the date off center. And it may be starting to change over as that movement has a wide time window in which the change occurs. I could be wrong, but Im not familiar with a quality fake of the Mark VI - wasn't that popular a model due to the small size, and ridiculous list price from the platinum bezel, which was a major Breitling error. Otherwise, the Mark VI is a beautiful watch IMO. |

There is no good rep of this watch. On most of Breitlings inscriptions are on French. |

Hi B, I am aware of that, but was asking the question, because I also found the exact same model with Certified Chronometer (instead of Certifie Chronometre) on the dial.

Both variations are correct, watch is real. |
