| Post subject: | Frankenwatch on eBay? |
I am new to this, but I believe this is quite the typical Frankenwatch... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... SS:GB:1123 an 806 with a date? Also, the serial number is supposed to be 9030015, as far as I can tell there are no 7 digit serial numbers starting with a "9"... the case back is obviously from somewhere else entirely.. At least he's not saying it's a vintage 806..

This looks like a Navitimer 7806 launched in 1972 with the Valjoux 7740 movement. http://lesmala.net/jean-michel/navitimer/revdom.htm I don't know enough about vintage models to spot the problems but I agree the case back looks to be from another watch. |

Caseback is non Breitling, movement photos are non existent (now why might that be?). Best case scenario it may be fine with a replacement caseback, but why would you risk it. |
