Offering an uncommon Brietling Wakmann Dial and apparently the only dual signed Breitling Wakmann model produced.
Putting this up as part of a consolidation of the collection. Have decided to reduce quantity and increase rotation frequency. I very much enjoy my Breitling Top Time 810 and that more than scratches my Breitling vintage itch. Nevertheless, this is a very handsome and oversized chronograph that is a pleasure to dress up or down with.
Background
Bought by myself from watch dealer Simon at Orologium in UK who sells a lot of vintage Breitlings.
It has been worn sparingly on rotation for the past year, about 2-3 times a month.

Not sure why it says available but rest assured that the watch is in my possession. Have posted some other pics on OF here: https://omegaforums.net/threads/no-love ... 691/page-8
Have seen the same watch previously offered on Mentawatches here as well:
