Hello gentlemen,

I was browsing eBay and came across this Top Time. While comparing it to a few of the pics Fred posted in the past I noticed a difference in the tachymeter on this dial. This dial only displays through 100 in increments of 10. I'm curious as to the function of this numbering and how or when would it be used? Also, there doesn't appear to be a serial number or reference number on the case back.

I'm not necessarily interested in purchasing, rather just trying to educate myself. Since picking up my 815 I've become fascinated with all thing vintage Breitling. Your time is greatly appreciated!

Thanks Fred! Should the case back have the serial number?

Wayne, you are correct, Gisbert has these as replacement dials.
serial number is inside the caseback on the early ref. 810
