I clocked a sales rep with a very nive Navi on brown leather with white dial.
I'm sure it was an Cosmonaute with the distinctive numbering and silvered sub-dials but there was a 4th button on the top left side of the body !!!!

What was I looking at ?

Thanks...

I can't think of a model to fit that description exactly.
There are several models with buttons on the left side but the only one I can think of on the left top and having three on the right side is the Navitimer Rattrapante. http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... er_96.html
This however has a 12 hour face unless there is a special edition that I am not aware of.
There is the Chrono-matic 24 that has a left sided crown but only two pushers on the right. Are you certain there were three on the right?

Other than that there is the Pluton with a button on the left, in this case however it is on the bottom.
Also the Jupiter Pilot but with four buttons, two on each side.

That's about as close as I can get. Maybe someone else has an idea. :D

BR549 thanks for that link, it looks similar but the one I saw had a different looking left hand button. It was flat and rectangular looking...

I'm thinking it might have been a fake?

Was it a Rotary? I think saw a thread last year titled " Chavitimer"?

That's a good thought. No 24 hour dial though.

Bingo !!!!

It was the Rotary "Chavitimer" I saw.
The high polished silver sub dials and the leather confirm it...

Thanks for that guys.

Breitling should insist that Rotary get that copy off the Market :evil:

How could anyone wear it? I would wear it if I lived in a cave.
