Hi All, I am into collection of vintage watches but new into Breitling watches. Saw this 806 online at a very good price which makes me slightly skeptical. Could I seek your advice on whether there is anything wrong with this piece? Apologies for the poor resolution photo but that is what the seller posted online. |

looks ok from what can be seen. If its cheap, its probably because the dial and hand lume has all gone black. |

I see. But that is true for more than half the Navitimer 806 I find online. It is difficult to find one with decent lume left on it. |

yes, many have "dead" lume, some offered at outrageous prices. but: do they sell? I'd wait & hunt for a better example |
