The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Can anyone tell me about this breitling I bought? I have a few number of breitlings but dont know anything about this one. The back says 91007 V

Well I have some thoughts, but let me keep them to myself until I have a chance to do a bit more research.

Well I'm still looking, and will check more detailed reference material when I get home, but initially I have some doubts about this one.

The case may well be from a 91007 - it's the right shape, and the pushers and crown look correct. However, I can't find a 91007 with a 45 minute chrono - I believe them to be Valjoux 7733 powered 30 minute chronos.

That said, those are from the 60s, and the dial on this suggests later, so maybe it was revised later - I'm still looking.

The hands don't look particularly Breitling like, and the dial is also a bit iffy, but I'm too conservative to dismiss it completely at this point.

This is the movement it has in it. I couldn't get a clear picture so I found a watch with the same movement.

Correction, this is the movement that is in the watch, I dont know why this movement has a date and mine does not but this is exactly what the inside of my watch looks like.

I found a picture of my movment on a watch without the date.

Well to be accurate, that's what the back of the movement looks like.

The movement you reference is a Valjouxx 7734 - the difference between that and the 7733 that should be in your watch is the date mechanism, which isn't apparent from the back of the movement.

There is no doubt that the 7733 and 7734 were available with 45 minute chronos as well as 30 minute chronos, I just can't yet find a 91007 with a 45. Still looking and will check my books at home this evening.

The first one with the blue and silver dial does not look correct. Looks like one of those S. America specials. Need to see pics of the movement and both sides of the back for final judgement.
The Marvos/Breitling on chrono24 is a joke! Breitling was just added to the dial, the chrono bridge was shaved and restamped (campare to Datora bridge) incorrectly and the outside of the back has fake engraving that is too deep. LOL
The Datora back on the outside does not look right either. Craig

I've hit the books and can find absolutely nothing similar to the blue dial, I'm with you Craig.

Didn't even look at the Datora - just looked to see the movement he was referring to, but on second look it is a good example of what a vintage piece should not look like.

To the OP, I'm sorry, but I don't think this was ever produced by Breitling.

I will post a few more pictures so that we can verify, they will be there late on the 25th. Thanks for the help guys.
