Unsure what this fig is. Help ID please

Initially I thought this was a brunswick. I didnt get a photo of the leaves but now I'm not really sure. I think it maybe a Violetta, Vashion Violet or English Brown Turkey.

I believe these are brebas. The taste is rich, sweet, very figgy and had nice seed crunch. Ripens in Mid July.

It is not Brunswick.
Of course local climate can make fruits look different,in different location,but it also can be it is ,a genuine cultivar.
From what i seen,the fruits are like what in Pacific Northwest is called ,Vashion Violet.

Thanks Herman that's what I was thinking too. I grabbed a couple leaves this morning and a close to ripe fig for for comparison. [20150731_075953_zpsgs4fizco] 

Well,Well Well:Now that i see leaves,I have no doubt,that what is called Washion violet is in fact the very well known,English Brown Turkey.
Your fig is clearly:English Brown Turkey,a very good fig,for Breba Production in a climate like yours.
Second crop,not that good because it does need a long hot Summer.

Thanks Herman that's what my research was showing narrowing it down to. ;) I appreciate your help!
