Hi!
Could someone tell me from this images if this vintage Breitling trans Ocean is original. I search thru the forum and web but cant find image of this particular model nowhere.

Front: http://www.goongoola.com/ocean.jpg

Movement: http://www.goongoola.com/movement.jpg

Case Back: http://www.goongoola.com/case-back.jpg

The crown is not signed to...

Thanks.

Just had to look at the first picture to see it's a fake. The Chrono-matic on the dial means it's an automatic watch yet it has a Valjoux manual wind movement inside.

:yeahthat

Dial looks real, but not in the right watch. Caseback is also wrong and with an unmarked movement you have to assume that it's not Breitling.

Usually or if not all of the valjoux 77xx series were always signed Breitling. The dial does look legit though... too bad it's missing the "matic" in "chronomatic".

Hands are all wrong too. Date doesn't fit in the date box and yes, the fact that the chronomatic had the crown on the left. The case for these had an intergated bracelet.

Another newbie here: Looks like a Russian Sturmanskie to me.
