He should have gone with a nice affordable Seiko instead of a fake Breitling.. Such an ugly fake at that! |

For independent verification for me, can one of you also say the things about it that give it away as a fake? |

Actually it could well have a chronograph based on the fact that it has a subdial to 30 (it doesn't, but the dial on this one doesn't reveal that). There is no real Breitling with this dial layout, the only tourbillon Breitling is a 9 o'clock one, and this is a common low end fake that is instantly recognisable. |

Thanks for the clarification Roff. |
