Hello,
First time Breitling owner, recently purchased a Superocean Heritage II from Jomashop, I was very excited about my purchase until I noticed some inconsistencies in the clasp, specifically the "MODEL DEPOSE" and "MANUFACTURE EN SUISSE" missing from the clasp. The other aspects of the watch seem to check out but I am obviously very paranoid now, any feedback would be appreciated. Thank you

There are some variations in clasps.
Watch looks ok to me and Jomashop is known to sell grey market watches. Never heard they sold a fake.

Never heard of Jomashop selling a fake. They have been around for a long time and have a good reputation.

I did a lot of research on Jomashop before pulling the trigger on this, so I agree it seems highly unlikely this is a fake. However still I can't see to find a deployment without that stamping, my concern is why there could be replacement parts on the watch

Really? Have you ever looked at their Yelp reviews? They are lucky to get two stars. Yes they sometimes have good prices but not a store I would be spending thousand of dollars in!

That just means they don't pay Yelp. I don't trust Yelp at all, for anything.

Joma is legit...I haven't heard of them selling a fake. It would ruin them...even 40% off Breitling wouldn't save them.

Not saying they would sell a fake, but their customer service can be spotty at times!

I would agree with that. I've bought a few watches from them over the years and I never personally had a problem with them at all, even with returns from here in the UK, but I also know at least one person who struggled a bit with their CS. But they definitely sell genuine stuff.
