Hello,

I came across this 806 and was wondering how clean and new the dial and the hands are looking. The seller states that it is all original. Could someone please advise?

Many thanks for that!

this is a superluminova service dial with new hands
most likely it was 'restored' by either Horological svcs or Breitling themselves

interesting orange tone to the red accents on the dial, have not seen this before, might be a new batch that went slightly wrong ?

Is this watch from France?
It strangely looks like one being currently for sale here, and restored by Breitling:

Even the strap seems to be similar.
But red accents seem to be red on this one.
