Hi,
Suppose it would have been a good Idea to find the forum out before buying a used Breitling. I've never been one for reading the instructions first tho'
So, can anyone point me in the right direction for some info. and tell me if I have bought something worth owning (or not!).
All honest & constructive criticism welcome please. It is a...................

'Bi-color Breitling J-Class Automatic 80250. 1990 Model. Automatic Breitling 10 caliber movement. Case diameter 39.5mm. Water resistant to 100 meters. White dial with index hour markers. Date display at 3 o'clock. Uni-directional bezel. Bi-color Bracelet with double folding concealed clasp.'

............bought from a dealer but with no provenance. I have no reason to believe that it would be anything other than genuine.
Also, might it be possible to get hold of some papers etc. to (retrospectivley) substantiate what I believe it to be?

Thanks, in anticipation.....

The expertise on here is second to none, but if you want confirmation of what you think it is, the guys will need some decent pics.

Welcome to BreitlingSource and the watch is real - no decent fakes of the J Class. It's not a common pieces but has a great look.

Enjoy your time here!

As Roff said, no decent fakes of this model but post some pics in the Replica section for evaluation.
