The Breitling Watch Source Forums

$1,800 is a decent, fair price for a beautiful piece, $3,000 is far from realistic for today.
It would be good to have decent pics of the movement, a Breitling ltd. Marking on a 1940s movement would be surprising and clearly not raise the value.

ltd suprising rare i hope thanks fo responding

Surprising as in not a good sign.....

why? i dont feel its not genuine

appears to be true movement everything else looks rite

i know wog is rite with it

are you asking us, trying to convince yourself, or to convince us ?

it isn't a question of "genuine", the watch clearly is, but of being totally correct or not.

A Breitling LTD. signature on the bridge would indicate early 1950s assembly at the earliest, but dial woukd be wrong for this, logo had changed to applied script B by then.

You asked if LTD added rarity (in a positive way) and value - the answer to this is clearly negative, it does raise some doubts as clarified above. Shows we should actually keep mum about watches until we have decent hires pics - Roff gave you a link that explains how to embed hi res pics from a hosting site, please do that.

And please stop posting multiple times in succession. A post can contain 60,000 characters, that should be enough!

sorry did not know

OP, as others have said, post some high resolution pics of the movement for the guys here to help you, makes life easier for everyone:)
