An 18ct gold Special Edition 30 Seconds Chronograph automatic wristwatch by Breitling for Bentley Motors, the circular black and silvered dial with gilt baton markers, luminous insert hands, subsidiary dials for running seconds, 15 minutes and 6 hour registers, date aperture in second quarter and outer slide-rule, to a knurled rotating bezel with faceted central band, the automatic chronograph movement numbered 2892A2, case ref. K25362 131, movement and case numbered 714174, on a black leather strap with 18ct gold buckle, the dial, movement, case, winder, strap and buckle signed, the case and buckle with international convention marks and Swiss dog's head assay marks, accompanied by maker's Bakelite box and warranty certificate issued by David Morris, dated 10 January 2008, case width 5cm

Minimal wear to dial and glass, diameter of dial approximately 3.95cm. Scuffs, scratches and nicks/chips to case, bezel winder and pushers, commensurate for use. Marks to the case back and buckle are clearly struck. Wear and patchy discolouration to strap. The movement currently runs and the winder can be deployed to adjust the date and position of the hands, but the pushers do not appear to be currently functioning and may require repair/adjustment. Full functionality and working order of the movement has not been tested and cannot be guaranteed. The case back has not been removed and therefore the movement has not been viewed.

The interior lining to the bakelite box has degraded, with losses and scuffs to the finish. The base of the maker's outer box is also included (the top of the outer box is missing).
