There is a seemingly similar unbelievable condition SS 769 on ebay

http://m.ebay.com/itm/301161489284

So would be a good benchmark for market value, I think.

Could be the pictures, but that ebay one looks polished? Also does the bridge on these say Breitling Premier?

exceptionally nice piece, maybe a bit of polish work on the case, but w/ the correct 1940s box and papers !

will be intereresting to see how high it goes and where the reserve is.

San - some movements are unmarked, some Breitlings script, some including Premier, though primarily 18k pieces, we've seen them all, totally inconsistent. All on cases produced in 1945 to 1947 that were assembled/finished in the subsequent years until the early 1950s.
