Strap definitely is, so clasp likely is as well, but can't tell for sure on those photos.

Reported as "Strap is fake, marking on the reverse is incorrect for Breitling croc."

Saved for reference as this has the classic descended "Suiooe" telltale. There is also another version of fake straps that gets this text right but lacks the correct detailing inside the wings logo.

I emailed this guy and told him it was fake because they never put cuir on a croco strap, but he insisted it was real because he saw other ones on eBay like that, I said there fake also.
