Purchased here about 6 months ago. Great grab and go watch but I find I'm not getting it in to the rotation often enough.
I am told it had the movement replaced prior to my purchasing it, no paperwork but given the age and the awesome accuracy and rep of the seller it all checks out. In the 6 months I have owned it, and as shown in an image below, this example is currently running at an amazing - 0.1 sec per day. Well within spec of the Chronometer certified Cal 68. This model was probably manufactured in 2001. Display is sharp and crisp.
Currently wearing an aftermarket sailcloth-style strap, it included the original black Breitling strap and Breitling buckle. Comes with the brown leather travel case and blue and white outer box.
(Note the fabric style box in the first couple pics are from another watch and were just used when I grabbed the pics).
Overall nice shape, with signs of wear expected of its age with some superficial marks here and there.

I have priced this competitively at $1999 + shipping on my label or yours.
