I agree Paul... the case does look redone... re-polished...
looks actually nice...

| Post subject: | Ref 2112 Chronomatic |
I've had a few of these 1969 ref 2112 Chrono-matics over the years but don't ever remember seeing one with a beveled and brushed case as this one has. Seems like more of a contour around the case ends too. The case back, dial, and bracelet all appear fine. Just that case seems a little odd. Maybe a redo on an original case? http://forums.timezone.com/index.php?t=tree&goto=5465221&rid=2177 |

Yeah I think it's a recovered 'over restoration'. They've done a good job though! |

Almost like a Heuer case. Attachment: 14Aut11630V750.jpg Rare Bracelet. I like it with the tonneau case. |

I think it is a steel version of this 2112 case, but I'm surprised to see a 1969 serial date since I associate it with later in the 1970s. The hands, date wheel, and bracelet seem later 1970s, too.

Quote: I think it is a steel version of this 2112 case Well spotted. It certainly seems to have a bevelled edge in this catalogue. It's described as the "New Look" Attachment: 2110C-U.jpg Whereas in this catalogue it seems to be the smoother shape. Attachment: herbst_1973_800-04.jpg http://chronomaddox.com/breitling/catal ... 600-04.jpg Almost like a Transocean case.
