It's a Wakmann. The piece has a contract date of 1958 which is when Wakmann was the US distributor for Breitling. As far as I'm concerned if it doesn't say Breitling on it anywhere then it's a Wakmann. There are some similar Wakmann model cockpit clocks that do have both names and some with only Breitling. |

It does have Breitling stamped on the dial in the later photos. I suspect though that was a later addition. |
