Breitling Premier Chronograph

Description

Up for grabs is a stunning and attractive Breitling chronograph, from their Premier line, circa 1940-1950s, complete with a screwback case and radium lume. This model bears a reference of 788 and features a 3-register Venus movement, housed in a large, 37mm steel case.

This Breitling Premier is in excellent vintage condition. The case is unpolished, with one small ding under the bottom right lug, which is only really visible from behind. The dial is in great condition, with no visible flaws and only very minor spotting, visible only under a loupe or at certain angles. The original radium lume is still present in both the hands and dial, reads strongly on a geiger, and has aged to a lovely orange burnt color.
