Hi

I seek a valuation of my Breitling watch please. on the back is stamped 622729 and under that is stamped 178.
It is stainless steel, the face is original and undamaged but the glass/plastic lens is scratched, it has two small dials - one at the top and one at the bottom, two oblong shaped push buttons on the side above and below the winder (Crown?). The top one starts the timer and pressing it again stops the timer. Pressing it a third time restarts the timer. The lower button resets the timer. I have owned the watch since 1963 when my Father gave it to me as a birthday present. He had purchased it second hand. I was told that it is very old and rare. Everything works. I would appreciate your insight into it's approximate worth.
