I obtained this watch as a gift & am trying to find out the approximate value. I don't know if it is worth 2K or 20K. I have looked everywhere, but the only ones I can find have a two tone band. Thanks for the help. I have all the original paperwork & boxes. Also, I have no idea how old it is, even though it is in excellent condition. The clasp is a bit scratched (should I get this buffed)? Sorry for the newbie questions, but I cannot find a soul that knows anything about this.
Thanks

Not sure if you read the responses before they were lost in the database problem, but I was saying that a D means Gold bezel, so you are looking at around $1500 for the watch head at that date.. the bracelet is solid 18K so I am assuming $5-8K. Though it seems really strange to have an 18K bracelet on a Steel watch with gold bezel.

I did not see any replys, I am very sorry.

The watch is ALL 18k gold, there is no steel anywhere. The face is white in color, but the watch & band are all yellow gold.

I cannot figure out how to post a picture or I would.

Does this help.
Thanks very much.

If it is solid 18K gold then I would guess the whole thing around $9-10K in value if its in good condition. I would guess $5K for the bracelet, and another $5K for the watch head.

However, if your case is marked "D" on the back, that is incorrect for solid gold.

The paperwork says d but the watch says K13050.1
What could this mean. Wrong paperwork?

Yes, it means wrong paperwork.
K means that it is a solid gold watch.
13 is it's caliber.
0 -- not COSC certified.

I'm sure that more experienced forum members will soon post the actual model of the watch,

Well, looks like you have a solid gold with the wrong paperwork.. not typically a big deal since they don't make fake Breitlings in solid gold, so it will be quite obvious that it is indeed real.

Nice watch you have there.. one i wouldn't mind owning myself :) It's probably about 8-10 years old.
