PRICED TO SELL @ $2,500

This watch was recently serviced by my local watchmaker, so it runs very accurately.

I found one example, in similar condition, sell for $3,600 USD in 2016 from Hodinkee. https://shop.hodinkee.com/products/1940s-breitling-chronomat-reference-769?variant=31678584580

Here is more insightful information on the history and relevance of this stunning timepiece: https://shop.hodinkee.com/blogs/journal/watch-of-the-week-breitling-chronomat-reference-769

For any further enquiries, please don’t hesitate to PM me.
Watch is currently located in Brampton, but I can meet F2F anywhere in the Greater Toronto Area.

Thanks CWC!

Just to specify, watch was serviced because it was speeding ahead. So I don't believe a full service was completed; however, the watch keeps very accurate time now. All chronograph functions work flawlessly as well. For any further enquiries, don't hesitate to PM me. Thanks, and keep the offers coming!

Just opened this bad boy up, and found out the movement is an unmarked Venus 175, which is quite rare.

This was brought to my attention from a fellow member: the chronograph seconds hand was most likely replaced during a service at some point
