Hello,

Have a question concerning this Breitling 810-24/824.

I believe this is a representation of the Ref. 810 with a 24 hour dial, but the sub-dial minute chronograph lacks the 3-6-9 markers. The Ref. 824 lacks these markers, and the chrono seconds hand is typically (from what i have seen) red (or dark orange) and the main hands are broader and flatter. Could the hands have been swapped in this case? or is this a transitional representation? I do not have any clear pictures of the case-back.

Appreciate any views or inputs on this.

hands are fine for the 810-24, only later 824 have the wider hands.
and there always were transitions too.

I had this one a few years ago and didn't keep it because of the old relume but it has the earlier style hands also.

Thanks Vintage for the pic. Helpful.

Could not find a similar representation; but seen the AOPA version with those hands without the markers on the sub-dial.
