Gentlemen, I recently inherited a 18k Premier and would like any information you may have and an evaluation on a fair retail price of the watch. The watch is in perfect working order. All registers function normally. Serial # 670772, case reference #797, double stamped bridge. With a little help as to how to post pictures I have a couple I could add. Thank You http://s1344.photobucket.com/user/tiepi ... /Breitling |

pic help: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=453 nice "spider lug" pieces, part of the high end Premier line; available in 18k and SS, apparently manufactured only in 1946 and 1947; never saw earlier or later pieces; Venus 175 bicompax. if the watch (manufactured late 1946) is in good condition, VERY roughly between $1.5 & 2.5k |

WatchFred, Thanks for the info. Watch is in perfect working order. The story is that my uncle traded a carton of cigarettes for it while stationed in Germany late 40's early 50's. |

Looks right to me. "Perfect working order" is less relevant than recent service history, but Fred's price range is fair for seller and buyer. |

The watch was serviced approx 4 years ago. It isn't worn very often but I wind it every 3-4 weeks. |
