It seems that obsolete models are no longer safe from the fakers. There appears to be a new improved version of the Navitimer ref A23322
that uses a Chinese clone of the correct Valjoux 7753 movement so no sunken date telltale any more. It also claims to correct the single digit date orientation.

Thankfully the B logo on the seconds hand is out and they all appear to use the same serial number, 605598

The date fonts seems to be near perfect but all the samples I've seen so far are set to the 28th.

Looks very good.
Beside B logo on the sec hand and slightly sunken date wheel, some markings on the slide rule look "short" to the rim (much better than on Datora fake).
