The BS from this one is overwhelming but I like this the best: "Winding any mechanical watch tight may break the mainspring. If you can avoid it do not wind the watch hard.'' Claims it is a "Cal Venus" but its a Landeron 39. What an idiot!

(Seller) "Lets see.... I don't what the cal of this watch is so let me guess 180, 188 who knows? I sanded off the old signature on the chrono bridge and added Breitling - no one will notice. The numbers on the back don't relate to anything Breitling but who cares, it says Breiting - some sucker will buy it."

I love this dial ! Very Rare indeed. Can anyone tell me if this is a real Breitling.
The first one who says YES will have to face trial by Breitling Enthousiasts jury.
