Hi,i am looking to list this watch for sale and would like a second opinion about the dial and the movement,dial has been refurbished and seems ok,movement is the valjoux 7734 and working fine,the only question is that the case back has no markings at all on the outside and i have not been able to find one similar.

The dial looks okay but not too great (The "B" looks a bit suspicious) ... the bezel is one I've never seen before... can't comment on that... but it looks like a yachting bezel. The caseback doesn't look correct, I believe this one should have the numbers 2010 on the back... and "Breitling" inside an outlined box and additional markings such as "stainless steel" etc.

the Breitling engraving on the bridge doesn't look that great either... someone will come along and give some more input...

and welcome to Breitlingsource.com.

Well photos aren't great.

The dial looks OK - see the 1969 catalogue - http://www.breitlingsource.com/books_1969.shtml (page 18), and the bezel may be OK, but I've not seen it before. The B isn't really clear enough to say, especailly with the hands in front.

The caseback is a concern and as jlee5050 says the bridge engraving is not like a 'normal' Breitling bridge.

I would stay away.

Another put together watch. I suspect completely wrong case, bezel,and back. The dial being refurbished would give me pause. I suspect it's a fake too because of how large the 'B' is over the the 'Breitling'. The 'Sprint' word is off too at the bottom of the dial. Don't like anything about this one.
