no comments, Rick, besides that all seems correct here but the fact that it is not a Breitling,
no connection whatsover.

Wakmann was the US importer for Breitling and others and sold many watches under their own brand,
either manufactured in France, or, like this, in Switzerland. WOG is the code for Wakmann.

Nice piece and price is about right for a Wakmann - they are good value, but as Fred says, no connection to Breitling.
