Hi everyone,
My boyfriend and I were looking to purchase a watch and want your opinion on a couple of pieces.
Any help would be appreciated.
TIA!! :)

Nothing visible on any of them is original so it's impossible to know. The case can't be seen, the bezels and dial are aftermarket.

Even if real these watches could never go to Breitling for servicing.

I just threw up in my mouth. What a bastardization of such a nice watch. Nothing wrong with a mild bezel, but that's just plain hideous.

They are probably real inside, all diamond work and dials are aftermarket.

Only advise with pieces like these is buy the seller - then buy the watch. Better to buy from a 100%, 1000+ feedback seller than a newcomer. Without a refund policy, walk away.

All the watches look OK as far as I can tell. You should ask for photos to show the s/n on the watch matches the paperwork. You're going to have to take the word of the seller as to the quality of the diamonds. There's no way of telling from pics if the diamonds are real.
