Breitling - Unitime

An aviator's attractive vintage wrist chronograph with 30 min. and 12h counter and 24h indicator Ref. 1765, Cal. Venus 178TJ, Case No. 1276047, Dimensions 40 mm, circa 1969, Origin Schweiz Case: Steel, screw back, bidirectional rotating black bezel with 24 hours division. Dial: Black. Movm.: Manual. This sports chronograph is a magnificent example of the highly sought-after Breitling big case "Unitime" reference 1765, which was introduced in the 1960's, as a tool watch expressly designed for pilots. The charismatic timepiece with its reverse panda dial - black dial with silvered sub dials - and the 24-hour rotating bezel only rarely comes on the market. The condition of this Unitime model is very good with a wonderful authentic vintage look. The luminous material of numerals and hands has slightly darkened over time. The case shows some age-appropriate signs of wear, the deep black bezel has some few scratches. All in all this is a magnificent and charismatic vintage chronograph. Case: very good, worn. Dial: very good. Movm.: very good, capable of running, cleaning recommended.
