Description
CASE & BACK: This watch measures a large 36 x 48mm not including crown and is 14mm to the top of the crystal. The heavy gold plated case does not appear to have ever been polished and still shows its original bevels and polished finish. There are very few superficial scratches and some nicks commensurate with a very lightly worn 48-year-old watch — Fantastic vintage condition overall. The back has some very light and superficial scratches but still clearly shows its original Breitling nomenclature of the period
DIAL & HANDS: ivory silver dial with black printing and finely calibrated track , dial has a few imperfections please see pictures. All original ‘cream’ colored Tritium luminous dots. gold and black hands
CROWN & PUSHERS: crown looks very clean and winds and pulls out to the time-setting position as it should. It sits tightly against the case. The two pusher caps are likewise in Excellent shape and both chrono pushers work as they should and also nice and crisply.
CRYSTAL: Large acrylic crystal is Excellent+ without scratches and no deep marks and sits barely proud of the bezel, which I believe to be correct for this model.
MOVEMENT: Manual wind chronograph is working well . Watch is keeping good time with a strong power reserve and all chronograph functions are working properly and returning to zero. This is guaranteed to be the case at the time of shipment.
