Hi,
A local dealer offered me this watch, but I can’t figure if this is an original or maybe a fake.
It seems to be an old watch but as I haven’t seen any watch like this Im wondering id this could be ane old fake/modified watch.

Just wondering, the watch is made with gold, why would waste that money to make an fake one?

They’ve taken an existing gold watch and added a Breitling dial. So the “gold part” isn’t new.

Tks a lot. I knew that was something strange, but how you told, they try to blind you with a very low price. He was selling for 600USD. Greatfull you are here to help, avoiding this trickers.
