Corgi Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 I really wanted a reliable chronograph with 3-6-9 dial configuration that could substitute for a Daytona which I constantly lusted after. Unfortunately, the constant worry of having a defective Daytona arrive at my doorstop influenced me to look elsewhere. My choice here was purely based on movement reliability instead of what I truly wanted - but the risky decision payed off, big time. The Breitling Navitimer took the helm, and exceeded my expectations in absolutely every department. Accuracy, appearance, quality of build - all are very respectable. The funny thing is, after owning it, I no longer want a Daytona - and instead another Breitling! This is surprising to me, because I really didn't think it could out-do the 'bling factor' of the TT daytona I wanted. All I can say is that it's mirror-like finish is so shiny, that on a sunny day, it glows like a beautiful horological orb. Let the pictures speak for themselves. I bought the piece from Joshua, and it is perfect in every way. If you are looking for a Breitling, I would definitely recommend him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16a2 Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Another converted Breitling fan Looks vrilliant, I have the black version with subdials at 12 9 6, and they are very well made! Can I recommend a brown strap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertk Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Great looking watch. These Breitlings are definitely underrated. I believe they are the equal of the Daytona's despite the marketing hype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
