Hi all

I was given this oldie as a gift, It had been dropped which had resulted in the stopwatch hands coming off their shafts and the crystal was cracked from top to bottom!

I was given it along with a bag full of cheapo Qtz watches, I'd left my specs in the car and couldn't make out what the watch was, Only that it was a chrono! I was quite shocked when I eventually found my glasses and realised it was a Breitling! He had pulled the watch from the bag saying that it was a high quality watch but I had no idea!!

I sent the watch off to a chap in Leicester and for £28+ return P&P, All the hands were refitted and zero'd and a new crystal fitted!! I was happy as Larry!!

The watch has collected plenty of Wabi sabi in it's fifty one years but is still presentable and keeps time superbly, The stopwatch functions as it should, All in all and a very nice pressie!!











Cheers, John
