In 1965, Breitling upgraded the line-up again with the 765 CP, featuring a clicking anodised aluminium bezel and a distinctive enlarged 15-minute counter at 3 o’clock. The present example therefore falls within the short window of Breitling 765s with a reverse panda dial and aluminium bezel. The watch was famously worn by Raquel Welch in her 1965 film Fathom.
