I don’t think it’s possible to verify your watch as a Breitling watch unfortunately. You would expect the watch to have the movement signed, a reference number, and a model number stamped on it, none of which it has. You would use those to look up the details, as well as the production year. The caseback should be made of steel. Yours looks to be a soft brass alloy. The dial might be genuine, but can’t say that for the watch itself. But if it belonged to your ancestor, I’m sure your son would be very appreciative if it none the less.
