this shows how many of the frankenized "authentic" Breitlings started their life, though this seller does not
bother with refinishing the dial, he just claims the movement used makes it a "Breitling".
at least it remains a nice Chronographe Suisse ....

That is a nice looking CS. In an open auction I might be tempted, but his BIN price is just slightly optimistic.

why does anybody bother faking dials, enough to claim it is a Breitling ...
