Hi,

Are these cufflinks authentic, i.e. actually distributed by Breitling? These look rather chintzy, and $30 seems too good to be true?

Thanks in advance.

I'd buy them, but the half wife hates them. Not understated.

Given the amount of similar items the guy appears to also sell at various times, I very much doubt they are genuine Breitling.

I'd agree, this guy doesn't seem like a collector. Plus the style of those picture collages screams counterfeit from Asia.

We once produced some, about 20 years ago, but Breitling forced us to stop it.

Not OEM but quite nice. I have a similar pair - think I paid about £40 for them.

IMO they are nicer than the plastic coated ones from Breitling.

Mine are silver rather than plated and from a different seller too.
