Hi all , finally I won this incomplete set called " Breitling XI" . Definitely a fantasy :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: for display .
As far as I know the "little fellow" found by Novacastrian was not the exact match for this set - not so far but not , and from my side I had the good one sleeping in the "things" box for years ( bought as B crown donor for a NOS ref . 6052 "Ouro" dated 1962, found NOS but without this crown ).
So the right watch is ref. 5652 ... Mine is SN 995970 ( year 1963 = SN 995109 to 996458 for non chrono watches) and it perfectly fits the different front faces . The ext dia . is 17.15mm and the inside dia. of front faces is 17.40mm . I just have to find a crown and a crystal now . I guess that 1 front face would have been put apart with the original watch , as normally they are 10 spare front faces + 1 fitted on the watch ( 11 faces for Breitling XI )

Nice set. Paul (vintage) has one a couple of years back that was pretty much complete as well.
