Hello everybody!

This is my first post and i need your help/suggestions.
I'm in the market trying to buy mi first Breitling: i chose the Avenger Skyland Black, beautifull watch!!
My only concern is regarding the different models i found and, considering the high number of replicas out there, i'm a bit scared: particularly i noticed that there are some models where the internal chronos are half black and half with white strips, other models are totally black.
Example of full black: http://images.watchfinder.co.uk/images/ ... -front.jpg
Example with stripes: http://www.watches24seven.com/gallery2/ ... alNumber=1

All help and suggestion are very welcome.
cheers

I think that's just the light reflecting differently. You'll notice when trying on a Breitling first-hand, different angles pic up different colors. Something I like about them! :lingsrock:

Oh i see, so you think it's just a matter of reflections......
I never saw in hands this watch so i can only judge by pictures and i was not sure about this difference......also because looking for it googling appears like there are more replicas than real deals about this watch.
Thank you for your answer!

As Jefferson said, it's just an angle.
