Hey,

Recently i purchased a decent lot of watches in Belgium and stumbled on this black breitling. Do you guys have any info about this watch. Do you also have an estimated price?

Made by Breitling purportedly for the British military via CWC watches apparently - normally has the CWC logo - never sold with a Breitling dial and never used by the military with a Breitling dial, but maybe some samples made. A few have surfaced. Can you post a picture of the caseback?

Hey,

Thanks for the quick reply! I got some clearer pictures of the watch.

Kind regards,

Thijs

So not actually “issued” as the military watch collectors say, or it would have different marks to the back. Do a google search for “cwc 6bb” to see the CWC issued version.

The CWC asymmetric chronographs were apparently assembled by Breitling and Hamilton. There is no association i am aware of with Breitling and any other CWC watch.
