Hello I wonder if this watch is real?
http://cgi.ebay.de/Breitling-Geneve-TOP-TIME-Plaque-Leder-NOS_W0QQitemZ370258260545QQcmdZViewItemQQptZDE_Kleidung_Schmuck_Accessoires_Uhren_Armbanduhren?hash=item56351cb241&_trksid=p4634.c0.m14.l1262#ht_1893wt_939

I can't find any information about it, so please help me!

Is it real or fake?

best regards
Anders

Welcome aboard.
It's real (maybe the crown is from some other watch, vintage experts will correct me if it isn't).
You can't be sure that everything is correct for the age and the model without case back and movement photos.

Well let's not get too carried away.........

What we see is very nice, what we don't see raises some questions - I would like to see caseback and movement photos to be sure.

If I am not mistaken, the 7736 movement that the seller says is in this watch is supposed to be 3 registers. I would definitely want to verify the movement and case back.

Thanks for all replies, after seeing what you are writing here and the writing on another forum (http://www.timetotalk.se swedish but great), I decided to not buy this watch.

There are simply to many warning bells (swedish expression)!!!!

Thanks for the help.

best regards
Anders
