Anyone have any idea what the latest use of BOW on the balance cock was? I'm thinking 1964 is a little late to be a BOW and probably should be a WOG. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEAR-PERFECT-TRANSITION-VINTAGE-1964-BREITLING-AOPA-NAVITIMER-806-VENUS-178-/230889903390?pt=Wristwatches&hash=item35c21c551e |

Way too late. 1957 is the latest that I think can be deemed definitively correct, although I have seen some later 'maybe' ones, but nothing beyond 1960. |

definitely and clearly wrong, as far as we know Breitling USA ceased operations sometimes in 1957 - so no watches imported after that would be marked BOW ? but these parts are relatively easy to fake, surprised we are not encountering them more often in the Argentina fakes. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid= ... &_from=R40 |
