I'm probably going to regret this but as per my other sales thread I'm trying to raise a bit of cash for the Wife towards her project car.................................

My beautiful Breitling Navitimer Olympus, fully overhauled by Breitling UK in March 2012 which cost £492! So this has remainder of 12 months warranty until 29th March 2013.

43mm diameter
Black dial/silvery white subdials
Stainless Navitimer bracelet will fit up to 7 1/2" (no extra links sorry)
Plus additional genuine Breitling black calf deploymant strap and genuine clasp both in excellent condition
Box and papers
Genuine Breitling gold plated pusher tool

The watch case and strap are mint as you'd expect following a BUK overhaul, there are a couple of tiny marks in the reflective coating, you have to look very hard to see them and they certainly won't show up in a photo. I was going to get the crystal replaced but once BUK evaluated it they said it really wasn't necessary. I have to mention it, I know they are there but extremely hard to see!

This stunner has the semi perpetual movement that only needs the date adjusting every 4 years.

Very hard to find now in this dial combination and quite simply I believe is the best looking Breitling they have ever made, but needs must and I have been considering something a little sportier.

Further info here

I'll post up some more pictures of the box and papers later but for now..............................

UK sale/trade only.

May consider straight sale to other countries providing you cover fully insured declared shipping at your expense

I'm looking for Now withdrawn firm as a straight sale, or may take another Breitling in P/X up to the value of £2,500, I need to release £1,000 in cash. I would consider something like a Chrono Avenger, Skyland, Big date Blackbird (preferred!), Seawolf (tit or steel) or perhaps a new shape Superocean, but try me, I'm going to be a bit fussy and prefer these on a bracelet.

Postage £10 by RMSD

Probably your only chance to pick up one of the original Olympus models in classic black dial config, looks stunning on the black calf strap!!

Payments by bank transfer or Paypal (plus any fees).

Stef

Beautiful watch and good luck with the sale. I would throw my Skyland up for a trade plus cash but I'm across the pond in the US. :(

Thanks, unfortunately we are a few housand miles apart, and to be honest I'm not a huge fan of the blue dial, sorry!

Oh Stef, you're killing me man! I regretted selling that NOS silver dial Navi Olympus to you for your work colleague the other year, and I would LOVE to buy this one off you, but funds are just too tight at the moment for me too. Gutted.

GLWS though mate.

Thanks mate, to be honest if it doesn't sell I really won't mind, like I said, I'm only doing it to release a bit of money to help out the Wife but if we can sort her car out by other means I'm happy to keep it.

It's a beautiful watch it really is, but I know I can help her out and possibly buy a brand new old stock Skyland or something for around £2,500 and I'd be happy with that also, but if it doesn't sell it will remain my most favourite watch in my collection!
