My friend got this watch a while back, and he claims he doesnt remember what the name of it was. He says its a gen, but I cant find anything on the internet that looks like this watch. It kind of resembles a BCE, but the date is in the wrong position, amongst some other differences. I am wondering if any of you guys know if this is a gen, what model it is, of if its a rep.




thanks

The 1st thing that leads me to say it is a POOR phoney is that the chrono dials are all wrong.

The subdials dont look like anything ive seen, and the date is in a wierd place, but it does have a good AR. Could this be an older Gen breitling? Bc my friends claims its Real until hes blue in the face, but i just dont really believe him. Just trying to get a second opionion from some of you watch gurus out there :D

My guess is that the bracelet links are fastened by pins, not screws like on real breits.

canal street knockoff... don't even dignify it by calling it a rep...

you can get knockoffs like that in Santee Alley in LA for about $80... less if you haggle....

no way is it legit..... not even close...

LOL

Its a Breitling Laundromat - worth about the same as a wash & dry!

...if your mate thinks its a gen, get him to open up the back.
The movt will be a $4 chinese auto, the subdials are for calendar functions only.

Let me guess, the large second hand sweeps all the time??? :lol:

Only think that gives it awa as a BCE is the bezel. The rest of it is very poor quality.
