Hello everyone, well I wasn't expecting to buy another watch this year but I got an unexpected bonus at work so I'd like to round off my Breitling chrono collection with an 806 twin jet, and I saw this one on ebay. The seconds hand does not have the arrow that I would expect but I can live with that or replace it, does anyone see any other problems?

Thanks as always for your expertise.

Sub dial hands look wrong to me - too long.
Slide rule doesn't look correct or original.
Also, possibly relumed dial.
