Hello there, I recently came into possession of a Breitling Navitimer watch and need help determining whether it is authentic or not and also what model it is if it is authentic. The watch was purchased in Europe around 5-10 years ago. Because I lack knowledge of how to post images on this site, I will provide descriptions of parts I deem necessary for identification below:
-entirely blue face
-steel case
-real leather strap(black) that says "Breitling" on it
-a tourbillon at the '6'
-has the 'geneve' logo where the regular logo should be
-on the back, it has "Breitling 1884" on a small black surface
-to adjust the time, you have to twist the knob to the left and pull out

After doing some research I found that the one of the only models that has the tourbillon is the mulliner tourbillon. But then again I can't find this watch on the internet so I can't correctly identify this watch. If any of you can help me authenticate and, or identify this watch it would be much appreciated.

one of those situations where pictures aren't really needed.

the Mulliner Tourbillon was neither available in steel nor with a blue dial http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... ey_47.html

your watch is a fake.

Buyer can choose dial color.

never saw a blue Milliner Tourbillon and did not know you could choose dial color, but at that price .....
verdict still stands, though, no pics needed ;)

In this case dial color really doesn't matter. :)

Fake. There is no such thing as a Navitimer tourbillon.
