Hi,
First post here.
Received this watch today and need some help identifying it - it was from my great grandfather.
Apparently the watch is still working (not the crono).
Unfortunately I wasn't able to remove the "second" back case to see the movement,
Many thanks,
Fabio

This seems to be a real breitling dial in a non original case. Double case back and that smashed lug looks hollow.

Thanks for the reply - looks like a ref 178 dial, but I couldn't find nothing similar in a yellow gold case.

Some photos of the movement - what do you think?

Chronographe Suisse with a Breitling dial. Fake. No proper reference number or serial number and we all know about the double case backs.

Thanks, if dial is original do you think I can sell it?
