Forgive me for opening this can of worms again, but...what about the bezel? :lol:

You posted a photo of a B13358, C has gold bezel and gold riders.

But it's still incorrect for a CG isn't it BN? A CG should have the Buck Rogers bezel where a CC has the the bezel shown in Administrations pics. And, I think the dial is CG but the hands are CC. Correct?

Yeah, I know. What I was pointing out is that the picture is listed as being of a Chrono Cockpit, even though it appears to have a Chrono Galactic dial with a Chrono Cockpit bezel, same as the watch in the eBay listing, the difference in the metals notwithstanding.

Yes, of course.

Got it now.
Maybe before B01 and the Buck R. bezel came out, newer dials were put with that bezel on.

Official information from Breitling:

The watch with that number is a Chrono Galactic.

correction, I am too stupid to write it right the first time: Its a Chrono Cockpit with dial B949 (black onyx)

sorry


Best greatings

Thanks, Thomas. However, since the number is on the caseback, it still leaves the mystery of whether a CG ever had the older, rider tab bezel, or whether the bezel got switched aftermarket.
