New to the site ...enjoying all the info.

I have an old navitimer and one of the push buttons has fallen off. Outside of sending to Breitling is there anywhere I can get a replacement?

Thanks

Nope.

It's Breitling I'm afraid.

Probably not as those push-pieces seem to be for the 806 which was a model from the 50's / 60's. It's highly unlikely they'll fit a modern "Old Navitimer".

Of course I assume you are talking about the modern watch that was called the "Old Navitimer" (http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... er_21.html) and not a Navitimer that just happens to be old - i.e. an 806! :lol:

You are correct that is my watch and I have confirmed that those pushers from eBay are for an 806. I still can't believe the only place to get pusher is breitling. They wanted $750 to replace button and service watch.

Well yes, but over $500 of that is for the service and if it hasn't been serviced since new then it needs the service anyway.

Incidentally, even if you found a pusher on eBay, how are you going to install it?

So why not just get them to order the pusher for you?
