Does anyone else think the Navitimer is a very uncomfortable watch to wear? I think my 45.4mm Avenger is WAY more comfortable.

NO!

I wear a Navitimer almost everyday - either on a bracelet or on a strap and have owned one since 1998 never had an issue of comfort with said piece.

After wearing my SOH i can almost forget my puny Navi is on my wrist, so as far as uncomfortable I would have to disagree.

No, every day watch and its great.

Looking at your collection you seem to like them.

Sounds like you need different arms. :wink:

Yeah, I have to agree with others, whether it is on strap or bracelet I find the Navitimers to be very comfortable, probably as they don't sit so high.

Another vote for the comfort of the Navi here. I find it a very well balanced watch all round.
