seller jedireturn (1.2k+) offers this beauty:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-BREITLI ... 5d339a18b3

the "dial in fine shape" is among the worst refinishing examples, but the seller seems to be
proud about the "red numbers" :wowzers

and he proves that you can mount casebacks on watches they were not meant for, in this case
a ref. 178 on a Chronomat 808 :roll:

as seller suggests "Please use your judgement and expertise to determine condition of this nice watch based on pics"
