    looks like an authentic very early watch that went and became the callisto

    here's a reference to it as well
    Breitling - 1980-1989

    Don't believe me or anything I say just because I say it ... do your own research , ask questions and get answers , find out what you can , do background searches on the (vintage) watch you're interested in AND on the seller , only if you do all of that you will be able to determine the authenticity of the watch you're interested in

    I agree. The lighting of the images is very good. Every detail speaks very early 80's model, maybe a prototype.

    You can divide a minute/hour into 100 parts. Very useful for aviation notation of flight times.
    As in 1.5hrs = 1hr 30 minutes.

    Then the case back is from another watch. Therefore its a frankien. Unless the information just supplied is a misquote or you
    have other information that isn't apparent in the photos.

    Would that explain the (to me) badly aligned date window numerals?
