| Post subject: | It's me again |
I apologize in advance for my repeated authentication requests. This time I am buying a Super Avenger II. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Breitling-Super ... true&rt=nc The pluses... -Comes from a reasonably reputable eBay seller with reasonably good feedback (99.9% positive) -paying with PayPal through eBay so double buyer protection if it turns out to be not right -I don't believe the SAII is a model that is replicated, at least not reasonably well. The minuses... -no box or papers original to the watch Any and all input is appreciated. Thanks. |

Thank you both for your input. The fact that case back and movement serial numbers match is a good sign. What do you think of end link fitment? It looks like there are some gaps. |

It might just be that it has a small amount of play in it, that's on the first pic and the 2nd straight on pic looks like it's picking up a reflection that makes it appear like it's not sitting correct. Looks all legit though |

Photo with the removed caseback (which would be an issue for me) shows bracelet code of 168a which is correct. |

Roff, is the removed case back an issue for you due to potential compromised water resistance or something more than that? I can have the silicone seals re-greased and have the watch kiosk at the mall do a dry pressure test. You've got me worried now. I hope some quote/unquote watch smith hasn't jabbed around in the movement with a stick or sum such instrument. |

A watch that has the caseback removed has dirt in it and potentially needs servicing. |

That is true. Thank you for the heads up. |
