Do you have any better photos - it's tough to tell much from those.

Looks like a 1942- Felsa 693 Bidynator, day pusher at 9hr-date pusher at 2hr-moonphase pusher at 8hr,with a 44 hr power reserve.

The 93-28 / 95-28 Datora was an automatic moonphase with this dial layout with (as hardrockminer says) a Felsa 693 based Breitling 28 movement (I can't tell if this says 26 or 28).

I've never seen this dial or hands combo though - pretty sure that the hands are later replacements, and I'm not convinced about the dial being original.

OK, that's starting to sound a bit better - they were full arabic dials and the case is consistent with some others that I've found. I'll need to hit the books to see if I can find any with a black dial.

Looks like you're right re. the hand set Roff and, I know It's long winded, ( I'm having probs posting links),but there is a similar watch(white dial) on www.i-am-spamming.de/1088-breitlin ... phase-6626 with a good breakdown of the movement etc.

I would prefer a different source, but yes, that looks OK.

I noticed the post by Dracha regarding the ''missing 806'' and see what you mean.
