FS: Vintage & Rare Breitling Ref 175

I bought this interesting vintage Breitling last year and it's recently returned after a 9 month stay at a watchmaker getting a thorough going over. It's in near mint condition, typically small 34mm, very early rotating bezel model, and fitted with completely serviced Venus 170 movement. It has lovely steel blue hands and crystal is like new. I suspect the dial is most likely an older repaint but not 100% sure since this model used a variety of hands and dials during it's production life. The serial number dates it to 1943. I have only ever seen a handful of these over the years and this one is probably in the best shape. The vintage strap in the pic is nos and included or also have a new Fluco Aviator strap if preferred. Looking for $2500 delivered for this one, PayPal fine. Also attached a couple of old catalog pics for reference. More pics available.
