FS: Breitling Geneve Datora 2034 PVD Military

Hey guys,

I am selling this rare piece of Breitling. Its a Datora 2034 with PVD coat, all in all black dial and PVD bracelet. I couldn't find another one in the old interweb so I wrote Breitling an Email. They say the following (German):

"Sehr geehrter Herr XXX,

wir bedanken uns für Ihre Anfrage.

Da wir die Uhr nicht in unserem Hause haben können wir Ihnen nicht versichern, dass es sich um ein Original handelt. Wir können Ihnen aber mitteilen, dass das Modell 2034 mit geschwärztem Gehäuse und komplett schwarzen Zifferblatt von Breitling produziert worden ist. Es handelt sich wahrscheinlich um eine Sonderserie für das Militär, was auch die fehlende Seriennummer erklären würde. Mit Sicherheit können wir dies aber nicht sagen, da die Dokumentation Mitte der 70er noch nicht lückenlos war.

Wir hoffen, dass unsere Informationen für Sie hilfreich sind und Sie viel Freude mit Ihrer Vintage-Uhr haben werden.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Birgit Gegenheimer"

Long story short, they are saying, that they don't have a second one in their company so they can't say if its original. But they say, that there was a PVD 2034 build by Brelting and black dial. The nice women thinks, that this is a special military version, which explains the missing serial number.

The watch is general in used state. The PVD is fading at some areas. The Dial is very nice and there was also a Cal. 12 version with that dial which is also very rare.
The movement, a Valjoux 7734 is running nice with +9 Sec / day and 266° amplitude.
The watch comes with a genuine PVD bracelet, marked Breitling Geneve.

Because of its rarity, I'd like to have 2000€ net to me obro.

I have a lot of positive references here or at German Uhrforum.

Thanks and cheers,

Nico
