My Dad bought this watch in 1965 and never had it serviced. I had always intended to send it to Breitling for a full overhaul. Thanks to this forum for changing my mind. It had a cracked crystal but was running when I sent it to Ashton Tracy in Ottawa, Canada for its first service. Very happy with his work.

I have that exact same watch from 1965 including the twin-jets. Can I ask what you paid for the refurb service? Thanks.

It was $750 CAD plus the crystal and a couple of bushings that needed replacing. Came in at just under $1,000 CAD.
