First photo isn't working for me on my phone so CA t give an exact model as I can't see the dial, but it is a late 90s Chronomat variant, likely a GT or Vitesse. Someone who can see the dial can confirm which, but it won't be possible to date to an exact year because this was produced prior to date coding being introduced.

Yup I'm confused of the same names, it would be great if you can confirm.
Ah damn that's bad :cry: .
Is it possible to get the papers for this watch since I didn't get them when I bought this , any help with that ?

Thanks again

Now I'm on laptop I can see images - about the only positive from yet another flight delay.

Can't really see much from those photos, pictures taken from less than a mile away would help :-), but probably a GT, doesn't look like a Vitesse dial. Warranty cannot be replaced (and is irrelevant now anyway), no COSC for this piece so all you are missing is the instruction book. Breitling won't have any of this vintage but they come up occasionally on eBay.
