Rene's was mor, so must be decent, right? In any case, it's in great condition and not at all common. If you like it and have the cash, why not?

Thanks for this.

To be completely convinced, I would have to see the entire brochure, especially what is cut off from the top.

I note that the prices are from the very early 1970s.

When I got my NOS 2130 in 1998 or so, it had had a very different handset than the one showing and I note that there are very few common handsets and a wide variety of dials.

At that time, some sellers had access to the family inventory that Ron Geweniger bought in 1998. I have a poor copy of Marcus Tschopp's catalog of NOS Breitlings, all with the inventory stickers on the back. Mine came from the local NAWCC meet with the "red-line" sticker on back. Neither Tschopp nor Geweniger had a 2130.

Isn't Herbert50 really Herbert Maerz. I think so.

Color me dubious.

no connection whatsoever to Herber Maerz, I would not be talking to him otherwise, as you well know, a collector in Carynthia, Austria.

I have a scan of the complete catalog, though I had hoped my word would be enough, I 'll see if I can upload it.

My humblest apology for a false accusation. I'll go away now.

And, by the way, logic and evidence is the best course for analysis.

absolutely, but assuming everybody named Herbert is H. Michael März is neither logical nor based on any evidence.

most black dial 2130 I have seen have the same hands shown in the catalog above - would be nice to see a pic of your's ? also only saw two dials, white and black.

That's it. I'm really going back into my hole.

I'm sorry that my apology was insufficient for you. I think I mentioned it in the form of a question.

If you google image "Breitling 2130" you cannot miss what I mean. Mine had just plain wrong hands - white hands on white registers and a black sweep hand on the common black dial we see. I've posted it before, but alas, photobucket has made posting a complication.

And, yes, Sigfried, you are the reason I won't come back to Breitlingsource again. You are imperious and frequently wrong. You think with your wallet and seem incapable of critical thinking. I'm sorry for all who get bad information from you. Breitlingsource vintage forums are now not about Breitlings, just your ego.

Adios.
