That one hurts - that used to be a nice watch until someone decided to try and 'Breitlingify' it.

like 99.05 percent of the watches from Argentina, pathetic junk.
the 0.5% that are authentic (yes, those do exist !) are crazily overpriced.

like I have written quite often:
Avoid Argentina, Peru and all of South America; China
Beware of Turkey and Italy, hesitate when you see a high feedback seller from Florida.
For all other countries; post the watch here, it might be authentic.

just to answer the "why do they do it" question often asked: because they can !

watch sold for the tidy sum of $499,--
am sure the buyer will leave perfect feedback about the beautiful, autentic and original watch he has bought.
