But I'm thinking it's a complete fabrication.

Script and print logos on the same watch - I don't think so. I'm with you, complete assembly.

kinda of dangerous these high feedback, solid sellers are putting up frankenwatches and sometimes outright fakes. i'm still very new to vintage and most of the time you'd think to trust these sellers to know what they're doing...

It actually looks good...

wouldn't the lack of the "Geneve" be a giveaway too? I'm thinking it looks too modern to be made before the 50's...

ly.

offcourse you are right, its a complet fake.

And Breitling always used Valjoux 23 or 72 calibres for military watches, compare the Navitimer 806 AOPA Valjoux 72 or the canadian airforce.
