It doesnt look right, to me. But that could be the blurry picture you posted. Is this an eBay auction? You need more and better pictures. I agree that there doesnt appear to have sub dial hands, but that could just be from the terrible picture.

I would exercise caution. You can get a REAL Brietling (yes even a pre owned) from a dealer and have no doubt.

What line is it? I believe that's from the Breitling POS line.

looking at the bracelet, that watch is either fake or trashed, but i would avoid it either way.

how much does he want

400 plus the remainder of a 400 $ bill at my auto shop ( which i have about 100 in parts ) I know it is a old used watch and 500$ is a deal even in the condition IF it isnt a piece of shiet knock off

Without a clear picture, I would definitely tell ou that its a fake (worth $20) and missing subdial hands (worth $0). Dont fall for it, the dude is trying to scam you.

Chinese 21j faux chronograph. Look at the sub-dials.

Bottom of the barrel fake.
