Hi guys,

Just a quick one, I've been a bit of a n00b and bid and won this item. Could you possibly tell me if you think it's genuine or not, I'm pretty sure it isn't.

Thanks

looks good; ref. 66 is a "automatic, round case, central seconds" according to Richter; you might check if there is a 6-digit serial no. inside the caseback, but looks like one of the rare correct pieces at first glance

Oh really, that sounds like it's worth giving it a try through PayPal then? Is £510 a good price for it?

Thanks for your help BTW!

Ok great, if you were to put an approximate value on it what would you say? I can't find anything about it after some decent searching, am I just being special or is there genuinely not much about it (any links much appreciated!) Also, I've asked for some better quality pics just to be 100% sure before I take the plunge.

Thanks 1,000,000 again for your help! :bow:

asking prices are often sky high for 18k 3-hand Breitlings, but the market isn't really there, so auctions tend to end well below 1k €/$.
as I said, reasonable to good price for a nice piece, what more could you wish for ?

wouldn't it be fair to the seller to ask before you bid ? there's little (actually, none for me) doubt the watch is genuine.
