Yep, real and now apparently sold. It's a regular 24 / 20 Breitling strap, nothing special to make it specifically Bentley.

Not so sure about that - it purports to be a croco, but says "Cuir Veritable." Shouldn't it be "Croco Veritable?"

The price of $139 on a deploy got my attention.

Are some Crocos marked Cuir? I thought they weren't.

Croco strap marked "Cuir" and Swiss not in line so definitely fake for me.

Oops, missed that rather obvious issue :oops: Checked the croc pattern, checked the reference, missed that slight problem of the whopping great stamp :roll:


Reported - "Reverse of strap is stamped cuir veritable, genuine croc should be croco veritable."

I knew something was odd about the strap but did not noticed the missing "croco" logo.

And to think this was actually sold by an Ebay Top Seller! :guns: :guns: :guns:
