Hello all,
Here is a series of breitlings. Let's have some fun identifying whether they're fake or not (and to report).

All real for me, but wouldn't buy any of them from those photos. Caveat emptor indeed!

Hello,

Thanks for your quick ansewers. But didn't get it, why wouldn't you buy them if they're real?

Thank you,

I got your point, fully. But since they're real... I mean, a "fake" watch must be the only factor of not buying it.

have you seen the watch ? did you speak to the seller ? why would somebody give a watch at half it's realistic market value ?
but go for it and let us know; just remember: anything that sounds too good to be true ...... typically isn't.

Seems priced low enough to scam someone since many will fall for it.

also, while the BREITLING OLD NAVITIMER ad says its all authentic, the strap is not OEM... why would the watch be authentic?

On that premise I have a lot of fake watches because I don't always use Breitling straps :roll:


OP, just because you are seeing photos of real watches doesn't mean that is what will be delivered to your door if you buy it!

no need for :roll: or condescending statements roffensian...
my point is that if someone cannot be bothered to describe the item properly, i would not make assumptions about the item altogether!
of course, you are the renown expert while i'm just a newbie trying to help...
