The Breitling Watch Source Forums

is this the correct caseback from this ref. 1159?
never seen this caseback from breitling.

looks fine for a late 1950s to mid 60s 1159.

thanks fred,
can you tell me a price value for this watch?
i found only one more at chrono24 for 1800€

not unreasonable - 1.5 might be my max.

Whats the movement is this watch?

thank you for asking
Venus 188 most probably, though have seen VERY late examples that had the same movement but already Valjoux-branded, then it's an R7730

thanks fred, great information

Some weeks ago a bought my first case back opener. Today i give it a first try and finally there it is.
Finally I can say it’s the signed Valjoux 7730, not the Venus 188.
Also right now I know it’s a 1967 fabrication, papers from 1968.

very late production it is
