Looks like a nice original 18k 789 from 1945. |

Chrono function is not working but other than that the watch keeps good time. Don't you think it is something missing on my movement or its just Breitling modification? |

The post on the 4 wheel has been broken and the drive wheel is missing. Parts are around $40 and the movement has to be completely dissassembled to make the repair. |

Are those parts interchangeable with later venus and/or valjoux movements? They look very similar. Thank for all your help and Happy New Year |

Venus cal 150,152, 175 and 178 for sure will work. I think Venus cal 188 and Valjoux cal 7730 are the same. Others would not work. Going by "look" does not work. |
