Can you be more specific? Is it just some old watch brand made look like Breitling? Are any parts real or is it just junk worth nothing?
Thank you

I don’t know what it is, but it’s not a Breitling, so can only say it’s not of any value.

It's not worth nothing, as it is an old watch - but it’s not collectable because it has been doctored.

You have to understand the motivations of the person who did that, which is to trick someone into paying more by making them think it is a watch from a widely known and collectable brand. However, these people are not collectors and don’t invest in understanding what is in their hands. It might have been worth a modest amount in its original condition and under its original branding, but they think they will make more by changing or adding the brand name.

Personally, I think the copper dial is interesting, and it may have been worth buying for a small amount just for that interest even if it had a sterile dial.

Just out of interest, does the 3 o'clock sub-dial actually do anything? The dial is for a chronograph but I cannot see any pusher(s) to activate the chronograph complication.
