Any thoughts on this interesting piece here?

http://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/162023460758

Whats up with the "breitling" signature on the inside of the caseback? Is it strange the one register isnt working? Maybe a movt swap? Hands? Caseback has 787 and then looks like a 799 faintly added above it. Not sure

Obviously a 787 back cover which would make me wonder about the rest of it. Worrisome when the seller doesn't supersize the pics and I told him so.
