Hi! I've been reading a lot, but never wrote anything. This time I need your help. What do you think of this ebay piece? Seller told me, it is from about 1940. I did not pay yet...what do ya think? Thanks a lot, Dirk Attachment: 063d_1.JPG Attachment: addc_1.JPG Attachment: b199_1.JPG

The photos aren't great, but the Breitling on the caseback is definitely fake - could be a genuine caseback that has been engraved later. Do you have a model and serial number? It's doubtful that it's 1940. |

Wow, thanks for your quick answer. I am going to ask the seller for serail numbers. Do you think the dial is real? He says the movement is a Venus..... |

Wrong movement too - they never used the Landeron movement in that model. Don't bother to ask about serial numbers - its a really bad fake. If you want to see a real one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... RK:MESE:IT Craig |

And now that I look at it again.... I can't believe that I didn't mention the crown - that's ugly! |
