Hello to all. I am new to the forum and wondered if anyone could help me to identify this watch which I have inherited from my familiy some years ago, and if is possible to know your opinion about it. There is no number on the back and I daren´t open the case. Hopefully the pictures will help. Thanks in advance. |

Hmm... no serial numbers on the caseback... can't really tell... looks almost like a Premier series from the 40's... but should have the Premier right below the Breitling script too then... I know you can't open the caseback but a shot of the movement always confirms things well... welcome to the source. |

hands look good, dial too, though do not so sure about the scipt B ? Never saw a 40s piece without any numbers or engravings on the outer caseback, impossible to call without pics of inner caseback and movement. |

Real dial, that's all that I'm prepared to commit to without more pictures. Shape of that caseback suggests that it could be hiding another caseback in there! |

Thanks to all for your help. I'll try to take it to a professional , open the case and I'll take some photos of the movement and post it here again. Then i hope it serves to reveal the mistery. |

Based on that it's not original. The complete lack of markings on the caseback (inside or outside) is a death knell for this one I'm afraid. Movement could be original, but is also an easy replacement, but the case is wrong. |

 What value do you think about the value of this watch? This piece isn´t working. Do you think it's worth repair? Thanks. |

In this state it's effectively worthless. It would have been worth a few bucks before someone messed with it, but now it's essentially just a 'parts watch' that isn't worth spending money on. |

Or just scrap it for gold and sell the rest piece by piece... |
