Hello all, I am considering purchasing this watch and would really like to know if it is authentic before I spend a fair amount of money on it. Can anyone be of help? http://cgi.ebay.com/1940s-BREITLING-CHR ... 19bc6f67b0 Thanks, P |

Don't take my 100% for it, but the dial looks heavily redone and the bridge on the movement with the Breitling script doesn't look right either... Someone else should come and contribute some more info shortly... Good luck with the searches~! |

Slowly back away from this auction. I think the "ae" in the sellers handle stands for "avarice and embezzlement." This seller is notoriously fraudulent. I'll say it hope they take me to court. Is your name "Greeley" or are you from Greeley? Me, too. |

Yeah this is a bad one - almost mint bridge (with bad engraving) on a worn out movement, bad redial, bad caseback engraving. |
