I've been looking at this watch all week I love the band. Great review I good luck with it

Ok thanks for the info I did not no that, the bezel on yours is much better. Its the only gripe I have with the watch everything else is perfect too me. 

Cole Haan is my new favorite they look great and are extremely comfortable with the Nike soles

They are as close as it gets 

Here is good example of what I am saying about the rotating part of the bezel with the side grooves and knurls (not sure thats the correct term) but you can see the difference in details from gen/rep. 

After 8 days I received my first rep, I was like a kid on christmas opening the package. After playing with the watch, putting it on checking it out in the mirror too see how it looks on my wrist I started paying attention too the details.

What I found 

1- This bothers me the most because its right in your face and in my opinion gives this watch its appeal and that's the rotating part of the bezel, the knurled part is not as deep and defined as the gen and is a little more cluttered then the gen

2- The grooves carved into the rotating part of the bezel are also not as deep and defined and are not visible when looking straight at the watch face like they are on the gen

3- the deployment clasp does not feel like strong metal and the engravings are correct but not engravings they are not deep at all infect they feel raised when I run my finger over them

4- The spoke wheel on the back of the watch is very well done, it feels and looks great but the spokes on the wheel are not as wide as the gen (but very close I can live with it no complaints)

5- The leather band IMO is very good and feels great on, what seems different from the gen is the writing is usually red on the gen and the inside of the leather feels like suede this does not

6- The dial seems perfect too me I know some have said that the blue dial does not look good but I can tell you in person this dial pops everything at even a up close looks very Genuine 

7- The feel of the watch in my hand as far as materials and weight is also very good the weight especially is spot on and the watch feels very comfortable on the wrist

8- the Crystal has a light AR coating and looks very crisp 

Sorry about the photos I have a Canon but took these with my phone if anyone wants a more detailed pic let me know and I will take some with my good camera

Hope you guys enjoy the pics if you have any questions just ask

Practically nothing updates with hte USPS!! I had a set of gold hands from HK, never updated past "Cleared customs" for over a week. Monday, there they were in my mailbox. Even shipping to Canada is crazy. I sent a package to The Zigmeister last week, now Express in the USA is overnight, to Canada should be pretty quick wouldn't you think? Nooooo!! mailed  it on January 2nd, it was delivered today. up until Yesterday it was still showing  "INTERNATIONAL ITEM HAS LEFT THE ORIGIN COUNTRY AND IS EN ROUTE TO CANADA", so don't depend on tracking, because all it will do is give you and ulcer from worrying.

Thanks I'll stop watching the track now I'll just stand by my mailbox till it gets here lol

Thank you I was starting too sweat 

 I've been tracking my order and its been sitting in a despatch center in China for 6 days is this normal Chinese shipping 

Another great example of why to buy here is I paid 540 for the same watch I could of bought for 418 thats a huge savings I could of put toward my navitimer I want LOL

Mike... thanks for your advice!  Do you mean to only buy from the Trusted Dealers from this forum... ie PT, TT, BK...etc?   or do you mean buy second hand off forum members in the for sale section?  I have no problem buying used if I can get the watch a little cheaper!!  hehe..

Yes I bought off the site my first time I haven't see the watch yet hoping I get lucky but at least if you stay here these guys have a reputation they have reviews you can read up on photos from actual customers are always good thing too have on your side too this way you can really get a look at what your purchasing and there so many great write ups on how too tell how a rep your buying differs from a gen 

Mike, just out of curiosity... which Breitling did you buy?  and what else are you researching into?

 

I am looking to buy a Super Avenger... looks like a few TD carry them and the quality of SA are very solid... prob very hard for people to tell they are reps.

I bought a Bentley big date, right now I am looking into a navitimer and a rolex gmt with the ceramic bezel not sure which one on wanna pull the trigger on next the super avenger is nice piece def on my list for sure

Congrats!  I am looking to buy my first Breitling as well.  

Thank you! Def do your homework I didn't but it seems a may have gotten lucky I will no when I get the watch. 

I just bought my first rep. Ive been doing my homework now for about a week or so and I've learned a lot and still have a lot too learn but this is a great site filled with great info. My rep has not even arrived yet and I'm planning my next purchases already. 

Will do

Thank You!

Yes and it's anti-reflective a coating put on the crystal to help with reflections

The breitling is amazing I would stare at that thing all day long

Thanks guys I def should of did my homework first I will admit that, so much too learn I can tell from going through this forum. I did pay $540 the watch and was guaranteed the watch will be swiss movement they encouraged me too have it serviced and find out for my self but from now on I will be buying from dealers on this forum for sure 

I have a question will a real leather band from brietling fit the REP and what the hell is AR????

55 views not one reply I though this was the "friendlies watch forum on the planet" 

I just purchased a breitling bentley 6.75 7750 from swiiskiss.com I def think I payed way over what I should have payed but thats water under the bridge now. The site says the watch has swiss movement but is being shipped from China LOL so first lesson learned there I guess. What I want too ask is what should I look for when I get the watch, how do I go about getting it serviced here in the states. This is my first replica watch I have many watches mostly limited edition citizens I have a real rolex date Just but I just love the look of the 6.75 and simply cant afford a real one at this time 

Also the watch I ordered is 6.75 big with blue dial and black leather band 

I will post pics when I get it in 

But like I said any inside info on what too look for on these watches would be great I'm not looking for any particular info just general info 

Thanks 

Mike
