This looks like the time only chronomat. Be nice to see some more pictures.

It seems to have a rotating bezel similar in design to the early Unitime.

That's a rare one. Would like to see more pictures, especially the back.

Never seen anything like that before. The only non chrono chronomats that I have seen had date windows.

My memory must be playing tricks. I thought one had been discussed before.

a while ago "breitlingmuseum" posted a 1952 catalogue. Looks very similar to the model featured in it.

Interesting that it has the case patent number on the dial. It looks like it says Automatic on the dial, which I guess might be why they made it like this, so they could offer an automatic movement?

If it's right it is pretty rare.
