Thanks for all the info guys. First of all my watch is a Ladies Sirius Perpetuel, purchased from an AD about three and a half years ago. Was under the impression the watch was all "original" with box and papers. A different AD handeled my recent service and has been advised of the diffirent dial color, they are checking into it. Service that Breitling was to be perform was an overhaul, new movment arms, new crystal and tighten the gold points on the bezel as they had come up.

As for the date markings. I believe I read somewhere on this site that was something Breitling started on later model watches. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think my watch was made just before they started doing that. I have no markings around 6 only the model and serial number around 3.

I do have a couple pics of my watch after the "remodel" but not sure If I am able to post them, or how.

Thanks Again...


The marks should be on your watch, but not on the caseback - on the sides between the lugs - you have to remove the strap / bracelet to see them.

Damn... shame on me... utterly sorry. Not enough coffee today.

BUT

I blame the large graphic things they both have in their signatures.
What is it you say; "Large graphics compensate for small...?" ;)

How dare you!!!! Image My signature is no where near the size of Marios! :wink:

Besides, my signature was just the product of boredom one day, and messing around with Photoshop! Image

GREAT NEWS!!!! Per my AD Breitling did change out the dial on my watch with the incorrect dial. It is going back to the factory and will be changed back to a grey face. Hopefully this won't take three months like the overhaul did.

Great news indeed - never heard of that happening before, but I guess that's what can happen when you use humans instead of robots (and thank goodness they do!)

Wow, someone made a mistake. I guess it could happen, it's just that it's not just a matter of skipping a step or forgetting something. Someone had to go through extra steps to get the dial changed out, only to have to redo it all over again :?
