I'm unsure about this one - the date looks off a bit(?).

Yeap, good spot! Aside from the wrong date font, it has all the telltales of the known quality fake of the Navi Fighters edition http://f4buz.com/watches/breitling/fakes/fighters.html

Reported - "Known quality fake copy - date font wrong, crystal s/be cambered, chrono secs s/be 1/5s not 1/4s "

Thanks everyone! Very nice side-by-side comparison Sharksmouth, very helpful! Would be interested in knowing if that evo is fake also.

Sharksmouth might be able to confirm though, but I think the Evo is okay

Evo looks fine to me.

Fighters reported as "Well known 'quality' fake. Bezel and date font wrong, should be 1/5 sec chrono, batons too big, etc."
