The hands were replaced sometimes in the past by Breitling due to recent service. I have bought a vintage bracelet that fits the lug size.

 Comparison with vintage deep sea. The size is slightly smaller. The black glossy dial with gilt wordings, comparing to deep sea alarm, is outstanding and catching attention very much.
