It's an assembled watch.

You would never find a real watch with a script dial and a stamped caseback, and you wouldn't find a script dial at all this late.

Don't have the references in the office to look up a 2001-1, but the stamping on the back doesn't look right either, and don't recall casebacks / cases like this in use at the time that this was supposed to be made.

I tend to think that there is nothing Breitling there.

Hey, Roff! Eddie passes out ranks on his forum. Maybe you should give out hockey brawling marks. Lose a tooth for every 100 posts. Get a scar for a 1000! As a moderator, you can be Phil Esposito forever.

I'm the owner of the watch. It has been a valuable lesson, but the good thing is that I've rediscovered this forum and I'm still searching for a nice cosmonaute :D

Post things up here before you buy and we'll set you straight. Anyone who has been collecting vintage watches for any length of time has made mistakes, it's an expensive way to learn unfortunately, but the lessons stick!

I can certainly vouch for that... I think I probably could've been more than halfway to a 765 co-pilot with the money I've spent on the mistakes... :shock:
