The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Hi everyone,

I recently purchased what I believe may be a Breitling at an auction along with a couple of other watches. From what I see it is the Grand Premier. Model A13024.1. I dropped off the watch at an authorized Breitling service store and they said it can take over 2 weeks before I know. Unfortunately I am very impatient and would love to know what everyone on here thinks! Let me know if you believe it is authentic or not and why. Thanks!

not an expert, but it looks like the real thing to me... (http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... er_50.html)

any paperwork / certificates coming with it?

cheers,
pg

Thanks! I am really hoping it is authentic. It would be my first Breitling. Unfortunately there are no papers or box with it . I ran through some of the ways to check that I found online. When I shine a bright light on the face, it reflects back blue-ish / purple-ish. Not sure how easy or hard that is to replicate but it gave me a bit of hope. Do you or does anyone know if this model is frequently replicated? I know it is from 1999 and it is still in good condition.

no doubt whatsoever this is authentic.
have never seen a fake of the Grand Premier and would very surprised if they existed at all.

Yes, it's real. A lovely dress chrono (if there can be such a thing). Proud owner for many years, and here's some eye candy for you. Wear yours in good health.
