I am contemplating this one, but there are a few issues... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Breitling-Super ... TQ:US:1123 First, the lume dots look a little funny. Second, there is no serial number on the caseback. The seller claims it may have been polished away over the course of many services. I think it is indicative of fake or best scenario of grey market. He sent an unclear follow-up picture which claims to show the serial number on the inside of the watch with the caseback off. I don't see it. Thanks for your help. |

Not the greatest photos, but looks OK to me. Movement shot doesn't show anything at that size. |

Lume dots at 2 , 3, and 5 definitely look odd. |

Thanks Roff. That's the best I can do with the movement pic. The way it is uploaded to ebay makes it difficult to capture and move. Yet another slightly suspicious aspect. I guess if I have this many reservations I should walk, huh? |

Ducati, I agree. They look raised and mounded whereas the genuine article usually has flat or ever so slightly recessed lume dots. I guess it's a pass. Thanks. |

I'm shopping for a Super Avenger. I know just enough about identifying a fake to be a danger to myself so I need some help. Sometimes a fresh set of eyes catch things that are missed by others. Please let me know what you think. http://forums.timezone.com/index.php?t= ... sg_6996367 |

I'm seriously considering this watch. Does anyone know anything about this ebay seller? http://www.ebay.com/usr/thebestswisswat ... 7675.l2559 They are from Israel and have about 125 positive feedback...some from fairly expensive watches. I'm just a little concerned as it is supposedly a NIB SAII for just over $3k. Must be fake or hot, right? The thing is...I'm not aware of any SAII fakes. Any input would be appreciated. Here are some pics... |

Second link is real, other links aren't to watches (TZ is dead, eBay is to seller). Watch in photos for third watch aren't great but it looks ok. |

Thanks. I realize the last link is to the seller. Does anyone know anything about this particular seller? Had any dealings with them? Know if there are any decent SAII fakes around? |
