:real: There are no good fakes of these Aerospace type models. The bracelet doesn't quite match though as it has a different finish to the head.

Edit: This model should have a Pilot bracelet, but this one is a brushed Professional. I think it is real though as it matches the one on my Chronomat Blackbird.

My late 1990s Pilot has similar circles. Perhaps its the later versions that don't have this machining feature

The circles have been discussed before and they are perfectly correct for older Pilots.

Thanks for that Roff, you've just cleared up a small amount of doubt about one of mine!

There are no CHRONO/DUO fake Pilots.
