I seen that earlier today, as well as many others. What's disturbing is how many used Breitlings have no boxes & paperwork. For me the fakes are getting way to good for no-knowledge me to ever consider buying one. I think you made a very wise choice posting here first.

It's a genuine Navitimer 92

Thanks for the vote of confidence. If I may:

Is there a way to get a Navitimer 92 book/materials if I should decide to bid and I win? If not, would anyone be willing to photo copy a Navitimer 92 book so that I could learn more about it and its operations?

Does anyone else have an opinion on the watch and perhaps the value?

Thanks again.

I have no confidence in buying things like this from ebay. Fakes are way to easy to get and they can be SPOT on nowadays. Watch the reviews on how to spot fake Breitlings on this site, and you'll realize it's almost impossible to spot a fake on pictures alone.

That's why there are some deals to be had out there.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with buying a watch on eBay if you know what you are buying, and in some cases it's the only practical way to find some pieces.

In terms of the question about a manual, this isn't a common watch, so you won't find too many manuals around. You may be able to get hold of one through an AD, but I wouldn't bet on it.
