The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Hello,
New member just bought my first brietling.
Bought online from thewatchery.com came with box, manual and Cosc cert.
Read that 99% of Breitlings are fake online.
Can you please authenticate I know most people here know more than AD.
Want to put my mind at ease and enjoy this watch!

Thanks,

if numbers on documents and watch match, you're fine.

There is very good fakes of SOH, take to AD and check papers.

From the watchery it is likely fine, but as others have said you must have matching papers - the fake of this model is virtually impossible to distinguish from the real thing.

Thanks guys. Stupid newb question is it the serial # on the bottom of the watch and engraved in the bracelet? Must match with Cosc certificate and manual? Is there any other papers?

Bracelet doesn't have a serial number, just a model number. The serial number on the caseback must match the serial number printed on the COSC and on the warranty booklet. Buying from the Watchery you probably didn't get the warranty booklet so you can't check that.

The only thing I found is a sticker on the COSC that matched the serial number on the back.

Well that's a good sign then. The warranty is missing because you bought grey market rather than AD.

Ok great so it's probably real? Should I still take it to AD or am I pretty safe with the watchery being 100% authentic. Any other members buy from them?

Thanks again!

AD's not going to know. I wouldn't be concerned about the authenticity of a watch from the Watchery.

Thanks Roff! I love this Breitling watch glad I bought it
