Breitling Ref. 807 - Question

May 04, 2024,17:33 PM
 

Question?…..Not a collector but I did purchase Breitling Super Ocean (Ref, 807) in 1965.  In 1985 I sent the 807 to Breitling (SUI) for general service and indicated that I would like to purchase a second steel band.   Breitling advise the steel band was no longer available but when the 807 was returned I was surprise they included the items you see in the photo below.  Question: Is the second crystal - with hands and “screws” applicable to the 807 or sent by mistake?  I am preparing to submit the 807 for auction and would like to know just what I am offering.  The 807 had been in storage 30 years and I was unaware of the possible demand until last month after searching the web. Appreciate any information on the crystals, et al.  Thanks

First... what a beauty watch!!! Congratulations 😊 Second... they send you back all original parts (they mounted replacements / NOS parts) Original parts are going to increase the final auction price 👍
