I really goofed. Can't believe I missed it. Doh.

I went to my local watch dealer yesterday and first thing he shows me is the new Breitlings he just got in. Very nice quality quartz super avengers. He had one in black and one in white. They are nice heavy well made watches and even have AR. Great price considering they are quartz so I decided on the white one for myself. Good thing it wasn't meant for anyone else I guess. Can't believe I missed the obvious. I am wearing it anyway. Can anyone tell em what's wrong with this picture? BTW, I think the black dial one was correct. Doh...

besides the crown, pushers, over-weight pearl - and the general BCE styled case?!...

That is what I was thinking. The watch is as large as a SA but kind of looks like a BCE on steroids. All the other flaws are expected with a quartz watch but how do they install the wrong crown and pushers?

There are so many flaws on this one that I don't even know where to start.

1. Wrong case

2. Wrong crown and pushers

3. wrong dial

4. Wrong seconds hand (the SA doesn't have the B hand)

5. Wrong bezel pearl

6. Wrong engravings on the caseback

7. Wrong date font

8. Wrong subdial placement

9. Seconds at 6

Missing hour hand (might be placed under minute hand though).

can you take it back?

Yeah, but I think I won't bother.

BTW, there is an hour hand its just hidden. I like this second hand better. I never liked the SA hand.

And I bet no one will even notice. Wear it in good health sir.

Already got a compliment from my barber who wears a gen Oris. :thumbsupsmileyanim:
