Notes:  For your consideration is an extremely rare vintage Breitling chronograph.

While there are a few version of this reference it is not hard to see why this is one of the most desirable with the introduction of the beautifully designed reverse panda dial with sunken concentric sub dials and jumbo 3 o'clock sub register with lume. Absolutely one of a kind! The steel 12 hour rotating bezel really stands out and the hands are not only unique but match the Pilot's watch design perfectly. Add the large 41mm case with beautiful lugs, signed crown and case-back and you have one incredible vintage Breitling Chronograph.
