Ok I think I found one http://cgi.ebay.com/BREITLING-Chronogra ... 500wt_1156 The spelling is really something and the pictures are obviously blurred on purpose. |

Pretty sure the strap at least, is genuine,normal length returns,and the branding looks to be correct. |

Looks real to me but the hang tag looks a contemporary one and out of place. It says the crown, pushers and rider tabs are solid gold, which I don't think is true. They only gold plated I believe. |

Hard to tell from those pics. The watch looks like a genuine Chronomat from the mid/late '90s but the MB339 case back was, AFAIK, only used on the very first (modern) Chronomats from 1984/85. I suspect better pics would show it to be genuine but with a replacement case back. |

It is a fake: It has the back of the Blue Angels, but a regular dial.... BG Alien |

Quote: It is a fake: It has the back of the Blue Angels, but a regular dial.... I think you're mistaken Alien. This is the Blue Angels Chronomat case back... ![]() This is the case back in the auction ![]() Which looks the same as the first Chronomat case back to me. ![]() This case back has a MB-339 silhouette which the Blue Angels have never flown. |
