Fake? For that price you would expect so - which is why I didn't bid, I just don't know enough to tell the difference between the fakes and the genuine article. Would the fakers go to the trouble of making a dual display copy or would the Breitling name make it worth the effort?

Did they make a plain lcd version(not inverted) of the chronospace? Im also not sure about the 'three' looks a bit dodgy. Good luck though if someone on here pulled the trigger.

It also looks as if it has discolouration on the metal case. :scratch:

The chronospace letters are a bit faded as well, somehow i don't think this is real.

Definitely a fake Breitling. The Art-Deco style swiss-made watch on the second to last picture looks great, though. The whole lot is barely worth more than £30-£40.

Done a bit of punting around on tinternet, only because a poker buddy of mine asked if I could do anything with his Titainium Navitimer.
Needed new battery and some TLC due to his MIG/TIG welding spatter accidents. !@@! !@@! !@@! !@@!
Again should have took some Pic's.. :bang: http://www.chrono24.com/en/breitling/ae ... 269837.htm
Anyway IMHO if that breitling is genuine then my cocks a kipper.... :ha:
