Post subject: | Newby - Help with Serial Number/Authenticity on a Navitimer |
Afternoon chaps, I've just bought myself a 2013 Navitimer World with black sub-dials from Mark Worthington in Wilmslow this week after a period without a decent watch due to an expensive 5 yo boy! It has a tan strap with clasp as the original owner preferred it to the black one that was on it. I then decided l wanted the bracelet and had a bright idea... ![]() I saw an Old Navitimer on eBay with bracelet but no box/papers had a long discussion with the owner and decided he could be trusted and he agreed to invoice me via PayPal to protect me as well, l paid £2000 for it which l thought was cheap given the condition The serial number is 20517 the model number is A13019 can you chaps tell me the age please? Thanks |

probably/hopefully authentic, an "Old Navitimer", produced before 1993. bracelet endlinks will not fit. |

To replace the end links with the right end links, which will be harder than finding the right bracelet - bracelet end links are unique to the model, you can't interchange them. If you can get out of this purchase I would do so, without seeing the watch GBP2,000 is way too much. |
