Yes, but let's see the caseback

Unfortunately there isn't one, I have the opportunity to buy this, just wanted to make sure I wasn't buying a fake.

I know it doesn't have a caseback, hence the smile. Impossible to find a 799 caseback. But everything else is fine.

How much is to much to pay? It will come with the hands and all will be assembled, just no case back, thank you for the information, I appreciate it

Do the numbers on the dial look original or repainted?

Dial is absolutely original.

without caseback $2000 - $1500 is too much , $1000 is a gamble and $500 is a 'i can spend the next 10 years finding a caseback' price

Thank you everyone

Wasn't the 800 supposed to have the moon phase, not the 799? Just curious

Are you referring to a Chronomat 801? Both are moonphases but 799 is triple date.

I thought the 799 was only a triple date not moon phase? Unless the buyer at that time had breitling modify it into a phase of the moon?

There are some non-moonphase 799s but these are rare. Most have moonphase at 12.
