In 1965, Breitling upgraded the line-up again with the 765 "Co-Pilot" (CP), featuring a clicking anodised aluminium bezel and a distinctive enlarged 15-minute counter at 3 o’clock. A few years later, the ref. 7650 was introduced, now featuring a larger 42.7 mm case. The present example is a rare "Yachting" model, easily identifiable by the yachting countdown subdial at 3 o’clock and the (very colourful) hands and bezel.
