JeanRichard Diverscope JR1000 Diving Watch

Hey folks,I have had a Super Avenger for about 7 years now and it was my favorite watch till last year. Well, I got a couple of Rolex's and don't like the 47mm big case anymore. It just feel enormous now. As Breitling is my first love, I'm thinking of buying a watch I saw online, it's a Breitling Chronomat D13050.1 Two Tone.However, I can't to find similar ones online when I search google images. It has a gold dial and blue hands.My questions:- Are they still being made? If not, when is the last year?- Does it have an in-house movement?- Could you please post pictures of similar ones?Thanks,Cheers!
