The Breitling Watch Source Forums

From my own collection... I have decided to sell my 18K gold Breitling Chronomat ref 769 chronograph, 1st execution from 1945. It has a rare signed crown and the movement is correctly signed in Breitling script. This is the earliest model with screws in the bezel. I serviced it about 5 years ago and it is still running great. The original dial has some patina, otherwise its in very nice condition. This is the grail of early Chronomats. Comes with a nice vintage black Hadley-Roma croc strap made in Italy. Sale will include a 1 year warrantee (excludes the balance staff). More photos on request to chronodeco@embarqmail.com
$3995.00 plus insured shipping. Thanks for your interest, Craig aka Chronodeco

I believe it's not allowed to consider offers above the asking price, it will be like bidding than.

Did not know that. I will change the ad right away. Thanks

a rare and beautiful piece, Craig !

GLWS; knowing the guys here, a pic of the movement and the caseback would probably be appreciated.
not that there is ANY doubt about the originality of this Chronomat, just to see that beauty.
