Overall, the watch is in excellent condition. Certainly one of the best examples we have seen! According to Breitling Guru Kurt Broendum this early cursive B dial is one the rarest 806 dials overall. It is in excellent condition, showing a homogenous patina., Both dial and hands retain original radium. The watch case appears to be in unpolished condition, very sharp with clean chamfers. The watch was just serviced, running with a very high amplitude, keeping very accurate time (320°; +2s/d). The watch was acquired from the family of the first owner in Leipzig. Extremely beautiful, extremely rare, very nice on the wrist and in absolutely investment grade condition.
