I am having my Breitling Transocean professionally restored.
Can anyone help me out on what the case front, back , and bracelet finish details should be.
It is a combination of satin and polish. the one i bought makes if very difficult to tell what was original.
many thanks

model is :A53040.1

I believe its fully polished except for the center of the fighter bracelet and the top of the bezel, which are brushed. The rider tabs are polished.

Thanks for the information.
If it matters, this appears to be the earlier version of the last model. The case back has a double circle around the center of the back of the caseback.
I can see where it looks like the back of the case was satin- in a circular pattern (seems odd)
also the top of the case is satin.
