As it is the only one I have ever seen with that dial layout in all of my time collecting Navitimers, and the first time ever I have seen Breitlings name on the dial of a black 806 AOPA Navitimer together with an AOPA signed AOPA wing, it is from 1955. / Kurt B

Interesting. Alan's article has a picture of a 1953 (or whenever) that has Breitling and the AOPA wings, but that also has Geneve on the dial, so not the same as this one. |

Yes, but it is not AOPA signed inside the wing like this one...... ! ! ! And that's what makes it so rare.  / Kurt B Roffensian wrote: Interesting.
