Outside stamped case number 720 exist but the case number is stamped inside, which does not seem correct at all.
Dial repainted.
Movement: I don't know if correct.
This watch looks totally fake to me but please tell me your opinion.

Not sure that I would buy in to 30s, but without having references in the office to validate the model # it looks broadly correct. Breitling engraving on the caseback is wrong, but looks to have been added to a correct case. Don't like the bridge engraving either and the dial is garbage, but there are some real elements here. Redial kills it for originality (for me) though.
