Hi.
New to the forum but longtime fan of 70´s Breitling chronos.
I have had a 2114 Chrono-Matic for many years but have some problems with the bezel.
When I bought he watch it was quite run down and had a glued on metalring instead of the black bezel that should be on the watch.
But I had it serviced and got a new crystal and also a revolving 12h bezel for it from Breitling in the original Breitling bag marked 2114 (this was many years ago when you still could get parts from them directly).
Problem is that my repairman could not get this bezel to fit on the watch and I have had it to a few guys and the same thing, no one could get it on and someone suggested that it was still missing a part tobe able to fit it.
Looking in old catalogs it says that the 2114 had a fixed bezel and the 2112 had a revolving one so I always thought that my watch should not have a revolving bezel but a fixed one and therefor this revolving bezel I have would not fit.
I also have been thinking that I might have gotten the wrong glass on the watch since mine is quite high with sharp edges and not as rounded as I have seen on other 2114 watches.
But then there was a thread here about a watch that caught my interest since it was a 2114 with a revolving 12h bezel and the higher, sharp edge crystal just like the one I have.
You can see it here: http://www.breitlingsource.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=27334
Not sure if that watch is original or put together from different parts though, anyone got the scoop on that?
So to sum it up, does anyone here know how these bezels should mount onto the watch and looking at my pictures below is there anything missing, have the case been modified, did I get the wrong glass for my watch, or something else?
Any thoughts or leads would be deeply appriciated, would love to get my watch complete again.
Regards.
