Hello Breitling Watch friends! In further investigating my 804, I had my watchmaker remove the dial and tell me what he saw written on the back. Here is what he wrote down: 0632 w3 but the "w3" looks like this:  (sorry for the crude drawing  )Does anyone know what this marking means? A "WB" for Willy Breitling perhaps??? Thanks in advance, Tom |

Never come across this before - I can guess that the 0632 is a reference number for the dial, but your guess is as good as mine on the initials |

If this were a movement signature, watch-wiki.de has a list of a lot of them here are the "B" and "W" http://watch-wiki.de/index.php?title=Ka ... ildmarke_B http://watch-wiki.de/index.php?title=Ka ... ildmarke_W |
