The pics below are my first three breitlings my wife bought as gifts. The thing is... They were all bought online and I was always a little skeptical if they were genuine or not. Since they were bought online... They did not come with a breitling warranty. So I wanted to put my doubts to bed once and for all and ask the experts here on this forum. So with that said...

Need better pics if you'd like us to posit about their authenticity. From where did she purchase them? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I'll try to get better pics tomorrow in natural daylight. I believe they were purchased from prestigetime or jomashop. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I'm no expert. However, I've never heard of fakes from Joma Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Based on the pics given, I'd say both B4B's are fakes. The SOC I need better pics because there are some good fakes around I heard. |

Do the sub dials perform chrono functions? Many of the fakes use them to indicate 7 days of the week, or up to 31 days in a month & 12 months in a year. |

After looking (based on this pic) a second time, the third one is, in my eyes, fake as well. The space between the subdials and the batons surrounding them is not symmetrical. There is more space between the subdial at 12 and the baton at 1 than there is space between the subdial and baton at 11 this is not the case on a original one. Again, this is based on bad pics. |

All 3 don't look genuine to me I'm afraid but I am looking at poor quality pictures on my iPhone so could be just the bad pictures. |

I'm on a phone so can't comment on authenticity, but..... If they're fake they didn't come from Jomashop / AuthenticWatches / PrestigeTime / similar. Those are legitimate grey market dealers who do not sell fakes. |

Photos are pretty bad, but all three look good to me. |

As said, pics are very bad, especially on phone. If I'm wrong, I apologise.... |

Jomashop and PrestigeTime are pretty big operations with a lot to lose. I would not expect them to be selling fakes. |
