I notice the hands, all of them, and the movement says Breitling Premier even though it's a steel version.
Can this be correct?

seller acts under several ebay aliases - most watches are Franken or fakes.
this is ine of the worst examples - the whole case is a recent fabrication, markings and bezel shape are incorrect - and they were stupid enough to produce cases w/ the same serial sequence, see here:

hands totally off, dial at least a relume, might be a (quite good) fake too, would need to see it in reality.

the Premier marking was incpnsistent w/ the 769s, started w/ the 18ks, but was used in SS too - movement is by far the best part of this piece.

Scary that a seller like that can have an almost excellent feedback record with almost 1000 feedbacks.

Thanks!
