The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Hi all a form new here. I have recently acquired one of many Breitlings to add to my collection.

I needed some work doing and took it to my local watchmaker who told me the movement was not original as it was a Japanese movement. initially I thought I had been ripped off until doing some research where I found this could be right movement after all.

Can any of you guys advise from the pics.

Cheers

its the right movement (Myota)
in those days Breitling used japanese quartz movements

Which Jupiter? The Breitling Source page has this a Breitling 59 movement:

I matched it based on crown position on your photo but I might have the wrong model, some of the others are Myota's.

I think Breitling never used Miyota movement

They absolutely did.

Well... none of my 3 breitling watches use miyota

and based on your 3 watches you make the well informed comment that Breitling never used miyota movements ? .. weird
