Hi guys, I'm interested in buying this at an auction. Is it real? What should I pay for it? I'm a total Breitling noob, so I actually have no clue what it could be worth. it's apparently a Valjoux 7733 movement and on the back it says: 90855, 3945 according to the seller it's recently been serviced. Which is good. So, what do you think? |

Frankenwatch. Dial is the only Breitling part. |

"tinkered with" is putting it mildly, trying to defraud buyers by adding a Breitling dial to a noname watch to raise the value would be more exact. In this state the value is zilch, with the original Wakmann or whatever dial maybe $250 to 300. Toptime dial might be worth $70 or a little more without the surrounding watch. |

Fred beat me to it, but I was going to say that the dial and maybe the movement as a donor are the only parts of value here - and even the movement is a stretch a 7733s are not rare. |
