Stock pic of an EM but the ref. no. and (possibly stock) caseback pic of the regular Mission model.
Description is a cut 'n' paste from Breitling Source.

Reported as possible fake

Edit: The caseback shot is a stock pic too. I was wondering why there was no compass on the antenna cap!

This model reference number inconsistency is on copies of the Emeregcny Mission, which I suspect this watch is.

Caseback shot is now of a fake - no pushers and wrong model number.

Reported - "Stock photo of front with caseback from fake - no pushers, wrong model number."

I think both pictures are stock pics real but different models - Front pic is an Emergncy Mission, back pic is a standard Mission (pusherless) E56121.1.

Caseback is from ordinary Emergency, real one.
He mixed the photos of an E and EM.

Q: You did your research, but not well enough. Those stock pictures are of two different modlels! Jun-12-12
A: Dear Sir, The watch is a model E56121.1 this model number belongs to the watch I own. It is a Breitling 1884 Emergency Model. The reason there might be incorrect pictures is because my husband put the watch in a safety deposit box at his bank and I did not have it here to take pictures of it but I will upload pictures of the watch I own today.Thanks for bringing this too my attention.....

I think the old saying of buy the seller first before you buy the item holds true here.

The eBay account had been inactive for sometime, with plenty of earlier negative feedback being posted, then just one positive for a low value item. That raises a warning flag for me straightaway.

Both pictures are real, but as has been pointed out, from two different models of the Emergency.

I hope the comments regarding his "husband" are more in humour than homophobic, as that's completely irrelevant to the status of this piece

VERY far from homophobic, seller just got caught in his own lies - that was quite funny
and might well be relevant in judging this listing.

sorry if that could be interpreted as homophobic - but I`m afraid hell will freeze over before
Alabama of all places will amend it's constitution, you might remember Amendment 774,
approved by 80% of voters, making same sex marriage unconstitutional in Alabama.

Edit: seller has now added pics of his/her watch, blurred to the max, but still
recognizable as fake. re-reported

It's ok Fred, some of us understood your joke.

Yes, the new pics of actual indicate a fake EM - the date window is at the 4 o'clock position but it should be between 4 and 5 o'clock. Rereported
