Probably should have posted before I bid (albeit not currently in the lead), but mind taking a look and seeing if it looks like the real deal?

Seller states dial has been redone, script on the bridge of movement and caseback looks added on and I don't think the numbers represent an actual reference number... I would steer clear of this one... I'm sure others will chime in soon... too many problems with this one and I can't type fast enough in my iPad... :lol:

Yeah nothing remotely close to original Breitling here. And some poor sap paid $660 for it.
