Has anyone seen http://www.aaa-replica-watch.com/ Check out the Breitling Pro series. Looks too good?

I'd like to see a good rep of the Breitling B-1 with good LCD displays and double AR. Also a good version of the Breitling Navitimer World with correctly lined up inner and outer scales on the slide rule, and double AR.

I want one too!

I'd love to see the pics of your watch when you get it back.

Yes the black dial watch could really do with double AR, but it's still nice as it is. The white dial watch has a light AR coating which is very helpful, but unfortunately that watch is now dead. It didn't survive a rain shower I got caught in. It got condensation under the crystal, which is fine because that dried out. The problem was the movement satrted to sound very noisy. And finally the bezel became very loose. In contrast, the black dial watch survived a rain shower with no evidence of condensation under the crystal. You win some and you lose some.

I originally started with buying gens, then bought reps and now I find myself buying more gens.

Oh NO! Maybe the Swiss have found this site too?

Hi Italiano, Because they have a section there for replica Breitlings for the purpose of identifying reps. Also as I wrote on that post, it was a test run for me posting pictures for when I receive my B-1. I'll post pics of it here also, when it arrives.

Here are some pics of my Navitimer World. Black Dial: White Dial:

That's a beautiful watch! Is the GMT hand adjustable in 1 hour jumps (such that is clicks between each hour) or is it smoothly adjustable over the whole range?

Great review Andreww! I am also a huge Breitling fan. I have 3 Breitling reps at the moment, and my latest is the SS Chrono Avenger. I went for the SS version because it has the new Asian 7750 (28,800 bph) movement with decorated rotor and AR coating on the crystal. The watch face is also very clear and crisp. I don't mind the fact that it is not as accurate as the titanium models, I still think it looks good in SS.

Yes I've read those thanks. The website claims that it does have an AR coating. Just have to wait and see I guess.

Ok. I just ordered the SS Chrono Avenger. It's supposed to have an AR coating. I'll let you know how it goes.

I am looking around for a good Breitling Chrono Avenger rep. After looking around for some time I have narrowed it down to two watches. Firstly: http://www.ttwristwatch.com/index.php?main...products_id=993 I like this watch because it is made of titanium and it has the UTC dial on the bracelet, which would come in handy at work. However I don't have any experience with that particular movement. I have also seen this watch here: http://www.perfectclones88.com/bl10059-[ce...nos-p-1990.html I have been told it is a 21.6k bph movement. 1. Does anybody have any experience with this particular watch or movement? 2. How good is the quartz UTC dial, how reliable? 3. How good is the anti-reflective coating? If that doesn't work out, the alternative watch I have been looking at is: http://www.ttwristwatch.com/index.php?main...products_id=975 This watch movement is the New Asian Valjoux 7750 (28.8k bph). I have confidence with is movement and I am happy with it's performance after owning two Breitling Navitimer World watches, both using this movement. I don't mind that is watch is made of SS, I would rather accept this flaw than put up with an inferior movement. 1. Does anybody have any experience with this watch? 2. How good is the anti-reflective coating? Thanks

Beautiful watch! Just out of interest, what's the button on the case at the 9 o'clock position do?

Thanks for that. I had a feeling something wasn't right.

I was looking around for another Breitling Navitimer World, hopefully one which the slide rule scales all line up. I found this watch at the following link: http://www.watchez.com/Breitling-Replica-B...tches-1537.html on the Watchez website. I sent them an e-mail enquiring about the picture and the slide rule scales. Their picture shows the watch with a large date font and the scales all lining up, just like the gen. The description of the watch on their website was very general and didn't give much detail. The e-mail response I got was very generic and didn't answer all of my questions. They did say that their product was as pictured on the site. Has anybody seen this particular watch from this website? And does anybody know of any Navitimer World watches which the slide rule scales line up?

You say the 2893-2 is a real GMT movement. Does this mean the hour hand is adjustable forward and backwards in 1 hour increments, independently of the rest of the hands (like on the genuine Omega Seamaster GMT - sorry, this is the only genuine GMT watch I am familiar with). And also, if this is the case, does that mean that the 2893-2 does not have quick set date feature (like the Seamaster GMT)?

So does this mean that the hour hand is adjustable independently in one direction or both, or is the GMT hand adjustable independently. Whichever hand is adjustable independently, is it adjustable in 1 hour increments (jumps) or does it turn like a normal watch hand? Also, what causes the date change, the hour hand or GMT hand?

What movement is in this one?

I have a Navitimer World, and the scales don't line up. The red triangle next to the 36 mark on the outside scale doesn't line up with the 36 mark either. The scales don't seem to have any practical value, they are just symbolic. I looked at a lot of photos before I bought the watch, but it was difficult to determine if the scales lined up or not, because in most of the photos on various websites, the scales were offset which made it difficult to determine if the scales lined up. I took a gamble, bought the watch, and the slide rule is useless.

Do you know if all Navitimer GMT's suffer from the problem that the inside and outside scales of the circular slide rule don't match up? I bought one and I love it, but I'm not happy with the slide rule scales.
