This is my second Navitimer, and whilst my original Navi 50th Anniversary Edition sparked my interest in watches that went many moons ago, to fund my ridiculous Rolex habit!

However this was the watch that started it all, and thankfully i knew that it hadn't been worn for 7years or so as it belonged to my best mate. So i bought it from him.

I much prefer the version i have now, the dial is seem better, more correct in some way. For me it is the perfect Breitling - if only the water resistance was a bit better :)

Though I own a different model right now, the Navi with left side registers is the first watch I think of when someone mentions Breitling. A great classic, enjoy.
