wonderful piece Terrence, but a pity Breitling changed the hands ...
have seen this several times before and am always angered by these seemingly arbitrary replacements - you need to steer clear of Breitling Switzerland for vintage restauration projects - the US is a bit different, with the Heists doing very decent work.
it is a long shot, but should I happen to see an original set of hands I'll message you.
please forgive the open words, Terrence; it is such an iconic piece, Fred
Sharing - Breitling - glossy dial vintage Superocean
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. [URL=http://s170.photobucket.com/user/ltang76/media/DSC05673_zps62e17c2c.jpg.html] [/URL] [URL=http://s170.photobuck...
Time for a Roll Call?
Congrats for having found one of the sexiest Vintage diving Watch. We are three here to have it. You, me and Eitan, but Eitan has the Chronograph version of ours. Sublime. Best, Nicolas ...
The original hands are so sexy. The chronograph is even better ... love to see more.
Waiting for the chronograph pictures thou. HAGWE
Damn you, Fred! You have both of them?
The Chrono and the Time only are such a desirable pair! Bravo. I can't say any other thing than a damn huge BRAVO! Best, Nicolas, veeeery jealous.
Fred, we noticed there is a wording UTI just above the 6 position
What does it refer to? Just wonder.
UTI
in the 1950s UTI was one of the distributors of Breitling in France, next to LIP that even had some unique co-branded models, in Switzerland we see Türler cobranding, Kronometer Stockholm in Sweden. Fred
Well Fred, nothing short of marvelous
when it comes to seeing your Breitlings. The 2005 was one of the watches that made me start to collect Breitling. It's got such a wonderful wrist presence. Here's it's later Brother - for me also great style and presence. ...

Fred, thanks for help and offer
And I know it is too bad to have it replaced that time .... But one I think I cannot complain is that, the condition of movement is good thus I have no problem wearing it. Thanks again and I love to play around the chrono version one day. Terence
Congrats Terence
It looks in stunning condition. A real stunner. Here's the original advert for it. I'm very jealous, I have yet to get one myself. ...
