NOTE: LOOKING ONLY FOR AN "ALL-CANADIAN" TRADE. WILL NOT TRADE OUTSIDE OF CANADA

Description: Here's a beautiful, well-preserved vintage Breitling Navitimer known as the "Old Navitimer I", having model reference 81610/A13019, dating to the late 80's/early 90's. Tough to come by one in this condition. Do your research on this iconic model. All photos taken on date of listing (3/7/20).

Bracelet: This beauty comes with a specially-purchased OEM Breitling Milanese bracelet, the same bracelet used by Breitling for its recent "Airline Series" Navitimers such as the Pan Am. All factory links included, so will fit almost any size wrist. Currently sized for a 7" wrist. This is a stunning, and very comfortable, Breitling bracelet that draws a ton of compliments in its own right.

Condition: The condition of this Navitimer is overall excellent, especially for a decades-old vintage. The dial is clean and unmarred. The dial markers show a creamy-and-dreamy aged patinae. The sliding-scale bezel turns bidirectionally and has a pearl-like finish to it, very much matching the sub-dials. Chrono functions work as they should, and hands zero precisely. Timekeeping is excellent. The crown extends, retracts and winds smoothly and solidly. The date changes properly. You'd have to look very closely to notice the very few tiny surface blemishes commensurate with age and careful wear, but no major dings or deep scratches appear to be visible. The crystal is clear. The original case back has been polished, so the engravings are readable only on up-close examination but more easily so with a magnifier or loupe. Model and serial numbers are both visible. No papers or box.

Trade value: $5,000 CDN. Prefer a straight trade, but will consider +cash for the right deal such as a Submariner. (Again, only CANADIAN deals will be considered. Will not trade outside Canada.)

Shipping: Ships from Toronto, Canada. Parties to bear own shipping costs.

Cheers!

You have a minor typo in your description. The old style reference number of this watch is 81610, not 81619. GLWT.
