The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Hi

I'm looking to buy a used Chronomat Longitude A20048 with yellow or red dial. I'm a bit afraid of replicas though. Does someone have any knowledge about if there are any really good replicas of this model and what to watch out for?

I did some browsing and found this example: link to fake site removed by Roff. which in my eyes, if it's not an original in the photo, is very good. Here is the main site: link to fake site removed by Roff.

Any hints or tips are very welcome.

Cheers,

The site is a 'replica' (fake) watch site, so that is what you will get. Like many fake watch sites, they are using stock photos of real watches so the watch you receive would not look as good.

Prior to the Evolution version of the Chronomat series with the screw down pushers, there were no accurate copies of the Chronomat models. The fakes of that era typically have quartz movements so the subdials are wrong.

Thanks for the response

Sorry for posting the links, I didn't check up on the rules.

So with that, would you say that this is real? http://postimg.org/gallery/2xzg6ymo/ ? It's one which I'm interested in.
