Hello guys, new here I would like the specialists here to help me understand some Vint Breits I see around for sale, well...the title speak for itself, I can't understand why this one has "Chronomat" applied on the dial :
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300372005230&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fshop.ebay.com%3A80%2F%3F_from%3DR40%26_trksid%3Dp3907.m38.l1313%26_nkw%3D300372005230%26_sacat%3DSee-All-Categories%26_fvi%3D1&_rdc=1

is that a total Franken or did I missed something in the Breitling story...???

Thanks !

Just had a quick look at work, but looks like a frankenwatch to me - serial number is way out, Breitling logos are inconsistent (script vs. printed), etc.

No idea why it's been bid so high.
