Hi Guys

I'm interested in a Navitimer A23322 being sold by a Breitling Source member (see watch here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=55311

The member does not have the warranty card for the watch, but has a copy of a service invoice from an AD in Singapore (Melcher's) for the watch (see document here: https://imageshack.com/i/p5OWuFZtj

However, the photos of the watch do not appear consistent with the photos of the watch on this forum.

My concerns are as follows:

1) The red arrows on the part of the dial at 9 'o' clock exist on the member's watch, but not on the Breitling Source photo.

2) The date display on the member's watch appears to be 90 degrees off (ie: the base of the number representing the date on the member's watch faces the 4.5 'o' clock position whereas the base of the date on the watch in the Breitling Source photograph points to the 6 'o' clock position.

My questions are:

1) Is the member's watch real or fake?

2) Is it possible that the service (which included a full overhaul) caused the above inconsistencies?

Look forward to your replies and thanks heaps in advance.

watch is perfectly correct and very nice. a sales listing for a fake Navitimer wouldn't survive more than 5 minutes on this forum. single digit dates are tilted 90 degrees on the 23322, something no fake surprisingly ever managed to duplicate.
