By far the best to buy in my opinion is the Navi-World. The Navitimer is way too small in my opinion.

Go with the Navi-World, you'll be glad you did! It's the FULL LING!

I agree with Brain. Additionally, I can add that I feel the Navi's dial is a bit crowded, but the World's dial is not due to the size difference.

IMHO, the definitive Breitling is a black faced, 3-6-9 Navitimer on a black leather strap.

If you do a lot of international travel, the World may be a better choice but I personally prefer the classic Navi.

Believe it or not Sharkmouth, but I totally agree with you about the classic Navi being the definitive Breitling.

(But I still prefer the World! :) )

@Driver 8,

Glad you think the 3-6-9 Navi is the classic but wouldn't life be boring if we all liked the same things all the time.

The World is a great watch and I'd be proud to wear one. But I still love the 3-6-9 :D

I guess I'm the sole dissenter here...

For some reason I'm not sure I don't like the face of the Navi World and much prefer the standard Navitimer. Sure the regular Navi isn't a big and isn't a 'full ling' but it is about what looks right on your wrist. The Navi World didn't look right in my smallish wrists whereas the standard one looked just great!

I'm kinda torn between the two. I like the looks of the navitimer, but the size of the world, with it's style makes it my pick.
