Hi guys
I need help to identify the hands of this breitling top time.
They are not correct for the gen 1 top time as I understand but is it true
that they are non breitling hands at all? I have seen them on a lot of breitling.
I appreciate all help. Thanks.

as said on WUS, neither Gen 1 nor Gen 2 top time.
and no other Breitling I know of, but happy to stand corrected.

Agreed, don't look right for any Breitling that I can think of.

Hmmmmm..... Yes, 815 hands are similar, but the hour hand is quite a bit thinner. Close.

Wow, they look remarkably similar. Thank you for your expertise. Now over to my next question. I didn't know this when i purchased the watch, what do i do now? Where can i find the correct hands?
