Can I purchase seperately a black dial for my Breitling Navitimer 50th Anniversary watch. I currently own the
silver dial version? Will the standard Navitimer dial fit? Are there dimensional differences in the watches?

Best,

Smith One

Breitling do not sell dials separately. They may change it for you on request but only with a full service. There are numerous threads on here on the subject.

The 50th Anniversary Navitimer used a modified ETA2892 rather than the usual 7750 so the layout is different. You couldn't use a standard Navitimer dial on a 50th.

You would also need brighter hands set, as the silver dial has darker ones

Hi All !

I too own a 50th Anniversary with a silver dial. I also called Breitling USA and inquired about the possibility of replacing the dial with a black one - Breitling USA refuses. If I recall correctly they refused to do so on the basis that it is a limited production and any alteration could not be perform on either limited production or limited edition watches.


Best Regards,

Enezdez

Don't do it!

The silver dial is what makes it so cool!
