The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Looks similar to a Superocean dial, says Transocean on the rotor and aged enough to be an original? Very interesting font. Too bad it's incomplete.

Very interesting. Can't identify the movement from that, Felsa or FHF I assume. The B and script Breitling is highly suspect given that it is going to have to be mid to late 50s at the earliest to be carry that name, but I agree that it doesn't look like a recent redial.

as far as I remember (I will have to look at the ones I have in my pictures) the non chrono early SuperOceans all had 'transocean' on the rotor
so afaik the movement is correct but I believe the dial has been repainted . I saw this on Ebay and I believe the case and hands are also correct

Thanks to Fred's attention I found this one again

http://www.ebay.de/itm/110768818032

that is indeed the one I had in mind , case , bezel , movement etc seems to be OK but the dial looks to be repainted (w/ incorrect 'super' instead of 'superocean') and the hands seems replacement hands

rare piece though, even with the dial and hands incorrect
and if you win both auctions you will have the correct hands but still no correct dial , and I doubt I would ever find a correct dial as a spare
