The Breitling Watch Source Forums

i had posted a thread probably around a month ago of a vintage breitling, and posted a pic, and how i was going to have it restored, we got everything back to working order through our shop, re-plated it ourselves, only thing we are not able to do is restore the dial, so we sent it out for a company to do that....well it finally came back in today, it may not be the most perfect restored dial I've seen, as i know the company had little bit of problems doing it and I know I there will be there critics on here, but from what the watch looked like its night and day, and have to admit, im very pleased, the pic does not do justice

Somewhat a shame that it now has absolutely no patina, but I'm glad you are happy with the results, and will enjoy wearing it.

i can understand that some will say how it lost the vintage feel/look, but not for nothing im not a collector of breitling watches like some, i want to wear the watch, and i surely wouldnt have worn it, in its previous condition

Looks great nice job. Looks like a million bucks.



Cheers



Mike
