As I have not found any document, I bought the watch! Breitling UTI gold 18 k, ref 1151, date in 1962 (951344).
I do not know the movement, the specialist can help me?
For the modest sum of 600 euros ...
Here are pictures

I hope I have not done a bad thing to complete my collection.
thanks to your wisdom I learned a lot ...

have not seen the ref. 1151 before, but have seen other UTI co-branded Breitlings, movment looks fine, hallmarks fit, looks similar to the 1155 Cadette line, at 600 Euro I think it is a good buy.

the hallmarks on the back seem french to me , somewhere on the board it was mentioned earlier that some cases were made by french casemakers
this might be one of those ?
