Post subject:  Having a hard time ID'ing a Breitling watch..

Was at an "antiques" store today. They had a number of pocket watches in their case (some nice, some not so nice), but they also had a Breitling watch I'd never seen before. It looks like an later 1970s, maybe early 80s watch, and it had a number of different time zone dia.ls, and the labels on them were London, New York City, Sydney, Moscow, Geneve, Tokyo. I've been looking through as many catalogs that I can find, and I haven't see one yet.

They are asking $175 for the watch. It doesn't seem to be working, and the guy at the counter didn't know anything about any of the watches in the cabinet. It looks really cool though. Has anyone seen/heard of a watch like this?

Thanks

The only one that comes to mind ATM is the Unitime. And if it's that, I'll take it for a buck seventy five all day everyday. Pictures would've helped. :(

Yeah, we need pictures to be able to offer much of an educated guess.

I'll head back tomorrow and get pictures. It didn't hit me until I got home that I should have taken pictures.

I went back today and took a picture. The band on the watch isn't a Breitling band, and I couldn't get a very clear shot of the back. The back says "50m Chromograph" (spelling could be wrong), plus has the serial number A68062, followed by No1111.

The front is the picture attached. If anyone knows anything about the watch, let me know.

Actually, after reviewing this forum for those numbers, everyone has said with the No1111 said it was a fake. If that's true, oh well, I won't go buy it. I'd love to start collecting old watches, but not fakes....

it is true. neither "vintage", nor authentic. would have loved this to be a Unitime 1-260, though.
