Gotta love the aged hands with the shiny new dial!

original seller is none other than the (primarily self-declared) uber-expert Gisbert Joseph.
well, he does have nice NOS dials, why not use them......

not the first very questionable watch, have a look at this one:
http://www.chrono24.com/en/breitling/ch ... 073925.htm

contacted him about missing ref. wrong serial, dial, hands, logo whatever;
received a friendly p*ss off in reply and he removed the caseback pic from the listing ......

edit: found his reply again, too good to miss

"
thanks for letting me know your opinion about this item

the movement is signed and with no doubt 100 % original, the dial is an original dial signed Breitling and although the 18 k case is not signed it is original to the watch, i had many like this in the past 30 years

best regards
Gisbert"
