Paul showed you photos of the exact model in your other thread yesterday. Would like to see the caseback, but this looks OK from what I see. |

Please don't double post. You have already asked about this watch and been told that it's fine. Duplicate threads merged. |

Old post so forgive to bring this up again but the dial seems to be redone Left a watch confirmed to be OK by Craig . Right the OP watch -: no 'swiss made' on the dial -: A-typical subdial markings -: Breitling script strange, -: No "DATORA" on the dial -: Calendar numbers in black (typical in blue) -: Datora's start with day '1' over the '12' , this one with '31' overall the quality 'look and feel' just isn't there

-: no 'swiss made' on the dial -: Breitling script strange, -: No "DATORA" on the dial -: Datora's start with day '1' over the '12' , this one with '31' from "the golden age of the chronograph", Breitling collection. |

and I assume you are posting that Datora 785 because you think there's something strange and incorrect with that watch as well ? I agree with your assessment the premier in that series I find questionable as well http://www.relojes-especiales.com/foros ... os-124396/ |

I agree Fred, On that 785 Datora (what I find questionable) -: Breitling script -: no swiss made -: day/date/month pusher protection on the case -: all hands seem to be incorrect -: Dial doesnt seem like any Breitling dial -: No 'Datora' on the dial this one looks genuine (from the same collection)
