Already up to 1550$ and going strong with 30 bids...OMGsubtlelaugh.gif
Hurry before the deal of the century goes out!!! Please note the inscription on dial "Swiss guilloché main"...Where's the guilloché?
It's a plain "procelaine" dial

my point is,it seems everyone bidding is an expert...lol,Brequet never made this watch,the dial configuration is wrong,they did produce a jump hour but below you will see what it looked like in the link.

You know, for many people, it's enough to put a famous name on a crap to make it valuable...
Those bidders don't know what they are looking for

Brequet generally puts their model numbers on the dial...here is another model jump hour they produced...they all seem to have the same similarity with the jump box above the 12 and in red,which the eBay one does not have...good find Sheriff Will!ThumbsUp02.gif

Guys, this is a very rare Breguet. Breguet never writes it's logo longhand that way in that location and the Swiss countersigns appearing on the 3 side is really rare. Also check out the way the first 5 of 55 is made and compare it to the 2nd 5 of 55. Also, check out how different the 5 of 45 is. tsk tsk....such a rare watch for such a low price. What's happening to the world of WISdog smile.gif

This thing is over two grand now. I emailed the seller, but haven't heard from him. It's pretty sad that someone is going to be taken for a lot of money. Well, at least I think think it's a lot of money. Buyer beware. :(

Found the movement of this "Breguet"...The Seagull M185...

Showing one more time that the price jumps who can be seen on Ebay's auctions should not be seen as a reference in the watch-world's value as many zombies are willing to bid them ass off there...

Well I contacted the seller and here are both our responses.

Dear expos2004,

Are you sure this watch is an actual Breguet? He are some sites for the real one I believe.

http://www.jameslist.com/advert/313338/for-sale-breguet-jumping-hour
Let me know.

His response...


I have no idea - it is very unique and different from any I could find.

- expos2004


I sent him 2 links for the actual watch, so how could he not find another?

Do you really believe that this guy never thought one second that his watch was false? As he "say" that he took it to a shop and get confirmed that it was a gold case worth 800$: Do you believe it's true?
Knowing that no Breguet is made as this one, the dial is saying ..."guilloché" and this dial is as smooth as a baby's butt( "guilloché" meaning that the dial is engraved in circle ways crossed with each-others) : Anybody with a little research would have find out that this watch is a fake.
Even the movement is far to look like any Breguet in appearance: How could he mistake?
He's just glad that his scam worked out and he's off with 4000 buks!
