Breitling Aficionados,

Long-time reader, first time poster. I'm the proud owner of a stainless blue-dial Chronomat Vitesse -- my pride and joy. I've long been interested in adding a panda dial to my collection. This Long-Playing Chronograph looks legit to me but I'd love some forceful backup (I'm also encouraged that it's from the US, not South America...). Description as follows:

"vintage ref. 815, 38mmx48mm to lug tips. Original dial, original snap-back case with gasket and anti-magnetic mvt. cover.
Movement is a 17j Valjoux 7736. Serial # 1415821. Triple signed"

Many thanks!

pics are too small to say anything relevant, please post some larger pics.
I see no reason to doubt the authenticity, but can not tell u anything about condition with these ;)

Roger, Fred -- thanks for the reply. Here's the listing I'm referring to (at the risk of bumping the bidding!):

You might want to make sure the seller gets you a picture with all the sub register hands pointed straight up to ensure they return properly. The fact that the center sweep hand is positioned straight up and the others aren't could be an indicator of trouble.
