I have a working Top Time 810, hardly been worn but no case or paperwork so I am trying to find out more about this lovely watch. Would appreciate if someone can give me more information on it. Does it look like it's been repaired with different hands? |

It looks perfectly correct and nice. |

Yours is a rarer but correct variant. The hands are painted white, and goes correctly with the black dial (one luminescent mark at 12) and a case with curved lugs, not straight. https://www.breitling.com/gb-en/heritage/top-time/ |

Given that insurance is normally a jump higher than the actual value, I’d suggest £4K €5k $6k |

Also I noticed a slight scratch on the watch face, you can see it in the photo but i find it very hard to see it in natural light. IS this something that can be polished out or is it best just to leave it as it is.? Thanks |

It looks clean enough to me and not much to be done about the scratch. Just leave it. |
