The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Yes! finally I made the decision to go for this fine time piece. The Navitimer 01 LE is one of my favourites of all time, so I couldn't resist the temptation of owning one. Even more, I think the LE with the display back is simply perfect. The old navis always seemed a bit too small though, hence why I purchased a Navi World back in 2008, which I sold later to a Breitlingsource member after realizing that it was too big for my wrist. Ever since I sold it though I missed having a Navitimer in my collection and I felt like I was gravitating towards owning one again at some point in the future.

So, taking advantage of a business trip I visited the NY Boutique along with a few other ADs. Surprisingly, the Boutique run out of LE Navis and from what I've heard they are almost sold out. 2000 pieces worldwide are not that many after all.

I gave it a few days and I even considered the option of getting a non LE Navi, but after a few days I came to the conclusion that I really wanted the LE in my collection and that eventually I'd end up getting it anyway.

After much consideration, I decided to send George Mayer from Govberg an e-mail, after all he was great to deal with when I purchased my Navi World. I usually tent to go back to great businesses and use them more than once, no matter how much time past since I used them. I've got a super quick e-mail response from George confirming that he had the LE available and invited me to give him a call to discuss details.

And here I am. Hopefully if everything goes according to plan my Navi will get shipped and delivered to NY on Friday, right in time before I go back to the UK on Saturday

Will post pictures!

Great news Felipe but there is a downside to this story. I now need to purchase another Breitling to keep up with you!

Can't wait for the pics!
