Breitling watch - real or fake?
Here is a link to a watch and i'm wondering if anyone can spot if it's fake or not?

I think it is but not sure enough that I would buy. The detail is pretty much correct although I think this is quite an old watch, 10 years at best.
I would be a little concerned and the numbers on the face, they seem a little gaudy for a breitling and the crown isn't what I would normally expect to see (that may be due to its being quite an old model). I would certainly have looked into other watches to compare before buying.
Either way I wouldn't have bought as I think it is horrific looking.

Thanks guys.
Got the serial number off the chap and phoned Breitling. Came back as genuine, though i'd expect it to have bit's changed if it IS 10 years old. AFAIK Breitling don't service non-Genuine watches, so the reciept should back it up.

I know what you mean, but you get what you like....
A lot of watches look nothing to me, yet are thousands of pounds. I don't intend on spending the same amount as the link above. I have a budget and i'm not going above it. I may end up with a Colt...
