van_damme1988 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Just saw this: http://www.ebay.de/itm/AUTHENTIC-BREITLING-SUPEROCEAN-Automatic-Chronometer-WATCH-A17364-/390646974420?pt=Wristwatches&hash=item5af45fc7d4 Seller is passing it as gen, but it is rep. Why? 1. Bezel screws positioned at 10-20-30-40-50-60. Gens are at 5-15-25-35-45-55. 2. Lume is off. If you compare lume on the hands and on the stick markers, they are of different shade/colour. Moreover the inner tachy ring dots are dots, not squares - obvious flaw. 3. Caseback engravings not as deep as on the gen. Also the Breitling logo is off. Gen is simply beautiful are more detailed/crisp. 4. Rounded edges on the dial numbers. Gens have sharp edges and different nr. 4. As a rep it is nice V2. But the seller is passing it as authentic timepiece without box and papers with stock rep rubber band. I asked him if he is aware that he is selling rep (as he has 657 positive feedbacks). I recommended him to visit local watchsmith for the confirmation. I will wait for his answer and if he will flame me or will not delete this, he will get reported.

cc33 Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Good looking out, the few times I have emailed "good sellers" about having a rep watch they have removed the listing themselves so maybe he will do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
van_damme1988 Posted August 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Update - Email helped as "the listing was ended by the seller because there was an error in the listing." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
