Breitling connection? I don't think so. He's careful not to show a pic of the back of the watch. http://www.ebay.com/itm/vintage-breitling-1946-Montbrillant-Aerotel-Watch-SS-Very-Rare-Ref-789-/261370691868?pt=Wristwatches&hash=item3cdae8411c |

Probably a premium line of watches. This one does have a serial number and he does have a reference number in the description but no pic of back of watch is worrisome. The whole Montbrillant thing in the 1950's just seems like a stretch but I guess there's always a possibility they were trying something new which didn't succeed. Maybe I can understand a 18k line of watches but even that would be unusual as it would directly compete with Breitling models of the same period. |
