well, the old "Landeron in 30s Breitling" story. It seems to be a Landeron 42 - quite a rare crown wheel tricompax movement - and we saw some claims they were used in mid30s Breitlings, but have never seen a piece above doubts, serial number here MIGHT be in a correct range, but it seems too early for a Breitling branded dial then ? massive doubts.

I'm still not buying a Breitling / Landeron. The only thing close to convincing that I have seen has been paperwork, but never seen a watch that I couldn't find fault with, and still haven't after looking at this one.
