I am a vintage Rolex guy that happened across this watch on ebay. I saw it and recalled a watch that i bid on that got away about 6 months ago. I vowed not to let that happen again. So this time, i made sure it did not. The case is great.....i cannot see evidence of much polish if at all (but i am not as versed with these cases as i am with a Rolex case. The minute hand seems to be a different shade of orange and seems to be a touch long.....however, i am not sure if it is original. My questions are as follows:
1)where the hell have you guys been hiding these cool designs for the past 2 years (when i have been collecting)?
2)how does she look overall?
3)the serial 1333xxx is from 1969?
4)i got the attached box and strap with the watch....i am assuming neither is original to the watch?
5)where can i get an original breitling buckle for the watch?
6)any issues that come up?
7)are the hands oem? is the second hand a little off?
not too polished, right?
8 is the bezel insert original and where can i get an all black one?
9)what is the power reserve for this watch.....mine seems to stop about 5 hours after i stop wearing it.
10)any imperfections shown on the dial are due to the crystal. I took a loop to the dial and was very happy.
11)are the lugs really 19mm.....where do you find straps or natos?
Thanks.
