Hi all,

I am interested in this watch and all looks fine to me but the strap throws me off as I can’t find any similar with the red stitching. I have tried side by side photos with gen but I know that my experience with identifying replicas is not there. Can someone offer opinions on these pics? TIA!!

The replicas of simple three-hand Breitling watches are so good now that I wouldn't risk buying them from an unknown seller on eBay, especially as you admit that you cannot tell the difference. I have tried to point you in the right direction, so see what you can determine. Personally, I would stick with Boutiques and reputable Authorised Distributors.

Wow, after visiting the link, it looks that this really could be a fake. OK, caseback looks a bit weird but this fake is really hard to spot from pictures. Horror.
