Post subject: | Co-Pilot Ref #1765? |
Hey all, would like to educate myself a bit more about this one. http://www.ebay.de/itm/Breitling-Co-Pil ... 2340ef2d00 I am confused on a few items... Isn't the ref# 1765 usually used when referring to a Unitime model? To me, the watch seems correct for a ref#765 or #7650 except for maybe the second hand timer for the chronograph function is for a 7651 model. Bezel looks unusually pristine. Caseback states 1765/36 which I believed was to reference the Valjoux 7736 movement but the advertisement states the Venus 178 movement. Is this a genuine piece or something which was possibly put together from different pieces? |

Mostly the 1765 refers to the unitime, (24 hour model) there are however known pieces that have the ref 1765 but are the AVI/co-pilot/yachting model and the 1765/36 avi/cp/yachting as well My hypothesis : The 1765 unitime was not very successful and breitling , going through hard times, used the cases and made them into better selling models like the AVI, CP and Yachting. I have seen enough of these and am convinced they are genuine , not 'franken' |

Agreed Fred. And take a look at the price. As you would say, "highly optimistic". I would say, "crazy number". ![]() Wayne |
