Great collection of 810's Fred. 8)

I am not sure if underneath Breitling is an 810.
If it is, the dial looks different as the ones you already have.

If you say so, I am not an expert in these things.

Here is the old sales link to it;
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OVERSIZE-BREI ... 0676245517

I've also encountered a "Breitling 810" (seller called it so) with two dials, possible, or impossible?

yes, I have Paul, but not an AOPA dial, great addition, thanks ; I'll add a 810-24 tomorrow.

@Frans: that link shows a ref. 2002, not an 810 - no, there are now two subdial versions, these are (several) other top Time models.

Paul reminded me to include the 810-24; renamed Top Time 824 when the Gen.2 case was launched in 1967 (rSS piece below)

Kicking myself for not buying an AOPA one when I was offered one at a really silly price :

Also an AOPA 24hr variant:

A perfect design in style and case size. However, the movement is loaded from the top making it a pain to work on. Some of them do have removable backs but they can be hard to get off and on....
