Breitling Genève Automatic Date Dress Watch – 18K Yellow Gold Ref. 2605 – Rare ‘String’ Textured Sunburst Dial – 1960s

We are proud to offer a remarkable and seldom-seen dress timepiece from Breitling’s golden era of horology: the Breitling Genève Automatic Date Ref. 2605, cased in solid 18K yellow gold and powered by the trusted Felsa 4004 automatic movement. What sets this example apart—and elevates it to a collector’s dream—is its highly unusual original dial, a radiating masterpiece of craftsmanship we call the “string” spiral sunburst dial.

A Dial Unlike Any Other – Textured ‘String’ Spiral Sunburst

At the heart of this vintage treasure lies its incredibly rare and likely unique original Breitling dial, characterized by a radiating spiral pattern that resembles concentric strings unfurling outward from the center. The effect is both textural and optical—fine grooved rings etched in relief, forming a dynamic, circular flow from the small central point all the way to the outer dial edge.

Unlike traditional sunburst finishes that catch light in linear or brushed rays, this dial exhibits a mesmerizing circular shimmer, as light dances over the finely textured ridges. The craftsmanship suggests an experimental or custom production variant from Breitling—a dial design we have never encountered before on any reference, let alone one in this pristine state.

Gold Elegance, Compact Proportions

  • Case: Classic 34mm solid 18K yellow gold monobloc case (Ref. 2605) in exceptional vintage condition, with soft bevels and polished contours intact. An elegant and timeless profile on the wrist.

  • Crystal: Original domed plexiglass crystal with integrated cyclops magnifier for the date window—subtly framed at 3 o’clock.

  • Crown: Original signed crown, correct for the model and period.

  • Functionality: Automatic winding with date window at 3 o’clock, magnified by the cyclops lens.

Period Correct & Beautifully Paired

  • Circa: 1960s

  • Reference: 2605

CUTE
Color: Cloud White, Material Type: Paper, PU
I absolutely love this jewelry organizer! The 2-layer design gives it plenty of space without being bulky, making it perfect for travel. I was able to neatly store my earrings, necklaces, rings, and bracelets without anything getting tangled. The interior is soft and protects my jewelry really well, and the compartments are thoughtfully designed to keep everything in place. The compact size fits easily in my suitcase or handbag, which is a huge plus. The cloud white color looks elegant and makes it feel like a great gift option too. Overall, it’s practical, stylish, and very convenient for keeping jewelry organized on the go. Highly

Nice little jewelry box
Color: Cloud White, Material Type: Paper, PU
Just what I wanted in size and available compartments. The only thing I am hesitant about is the paper outside. Mine is white and may get dirty quickly.
