Hi

I am looking to get my first Breitling and have been looking at this Montbrillant Datora. Please could one of you wise ladies or gents please give me your opinion on whether it is real or fake. I am a bit dubious to be honest.

Thanks

B

Thanks for the reply.

The main thing is that there is a line missing on the red dial - the one for "65" which I haven't noticed on any others. I haven't yet held the watch to confirm the weight but will tomorrow. The price is also a little on the low side which does make the cynical me wonder...

Looks real to me as well.
However, the missing 65 mark i strange and I also find the hour and minute hands to be very pointy/sharp. If you have a look at a real one, they tend to have a bit of a flat tip. What do you think? Or could just be the camera and image compression playing tricks...

Watch is real, likely just a dial printing error
