... it's right up there with this piece of crap: http://cgi.ebay.com/VINTAGE-BREITLING-T ... 3caf40782d
We should have a contest to see which fake has the most signatures stamped on the case, movement and dial! These 2 are a toss up for the fake laugh of the week.
FYI - had a customer from Australia send me an older Longines "military" watch from the 50s a couple of weeks ago but when I opened it up it had an FHF movement in it. Longines only used their inhouse movements in those days. The dial was glued onto the movement and the movement was glued into the case with contact cement using a crystal tension ring as a spacer! Not the 1st older Longines fake I have seen. In their hayday, Longines were expensive watches.

They're both bad, but holy cow - over $1,000 for that top one and the reserve still not met!

Maybe it's soon going to become an incredibly rare piece that has never been documented and can be recognised only by the super elite of Breitling officionados who will be prepared to sell it for the incredibly low price of only $10,000. :lol: :wink:
