Dear Breitling-fans and experts on this forum, I'm considering buying the attached Breitling Premiere two-register chronograph that I have been offered. I have not seen this watch in person but I just love the patina of the dial. Seller states that it is authentic and nothing has been changed by the previous owner. I would like to ask for your opinion: authentic Breitling Premiere or should I better not take this offer? Best wishes from Hamburg Christoph |

Replacement hands, looks like replacement crowns and pushers as well, but otherwise looks to be OK. Welcome to BreitlingSource. |

just to add that case is (quite well) refinished, bridge marking wrong for the period, so "nothing has been changed" seems a stretch. |

thank you for this! value of this watch >1500 EUR? By looking at similar auctions / vintage watch stores for this 760 type (steel, not gold) I couldn't really pin point a relevant price range for this model; price range seems to be quite big to my (I have to admit) unfamiliar vintage-watch eyes. |

it isn't steel, but plated base metal. hands incorrect replacements, dial in sad condition (though you like the patina, that's not a very well preserved dial by any means), bridge marking incorrect for the period. anything above 1k would be highly unreasonable, realistic value 6-800 max. |
