Breitling Duograph Rattrapante 18K

What can I  say, this one has it all… it’s increadibly beautiful, large, ultra rare and has a complicated movement. This Breitling Duograph from the early 1950′s was made in very small quantities in various references. This one with a beautiful original pink 18K gold French case with waterproof pushers which measures 37mm excl the crowns. It has reference 764 and is signed throughout. The Breitling Rattrapante movement is Cal 179 by Venus which is also operated by the large winding crown. The original dial is stunning and has aged slightly into a beige tone. Attached is a high quality black leather strap with a vintage gold Breitling buckle. If this was a Patek or Rolex Rattrapante you could easily retire, this is of similar rarity & quality but much cheaper. Simply stunning. There was some debate on forums about the originality of the case but rest assured, it’s an original French case with French hallmarks (eagle -head) made for Breitling. So even rare than the ‘normal’ Duographs.
