I have decided that i really love the headwind, but the pilot's taper just isn't doing it for me. It is polished, full length with 350a end links, center links are c2704 overall it is great shape, the clasp is a magnet for light scratches no nicks or dings just a lot of topical marks. I know this will fit the headwind, i can't vouch for any other models, so it is incumbent on the buyer to do their own homework. These are very hard to find, and do not come for sale often, and I am not sure how to price it. I am going to set the price at $699, but I am open to offers. I will post pics later

Up for sale is my Breitling Windrider Headwind Automatic Day/Date Chronometer. This model was discontinued in 2005 I think it is one of the dressy and classiest Breitlings. It is a nice size without screaming look at me, I find it wears better with a suit than my SOSF(it sits flatter on the wrist)

This has the black dial and polished case and pilot bracelet. It is in near mint overall condition with no dings or dents. There are some marks on the clasp that are impossible to avoid on a polished surface, nothing a polish couldn’t fix. There is a light mark on the inner bezel ring on the bottom left hand side. It
Hard to find one with all of the paperwork, boxes and full length pilot, and black dial.

Currently keeping 1-2 seconds per day while I have worn it
Smooth winding crown.
I am using the prior owner pictures from whom I purchased it(with permission), I will take new pics tonight and add to the post.

Specs:
-Movement: Breitling 45 with day and date complications
-Power Reserve: 42 hours
-Case: Stainless steel, 43.7mm diameter
-Strap: Stainless steel Pilot bracelet
-Bezel: Stainless steel uni-directional dive bezel
-Crown: Screw down
-Crystal: Domed sapphire crystal with AR coating
-Water Resistance: 500 meters

Comes with the outer box (old style), inner box, all links, instruction booklet, chronometer certificate, and warranty booklet (AD stamped).

I am looking to get $1,950 plus shipping for it.
I would trade down to a black steelfish or other breitlings (no rubber bezels), other watches also, no TAGS.
Please let me know if you have any questions or additional picture requests and thanks for looking!
