After much alignment of my Navitimers I finally got hold of my ultimate grail Navitimer!

For me the perfect combination of the classic black dial/silver subs at the 6, 9, 12 positions and of course a little extra added complication!

It arrived on the Navi bracelet but as that's just one link too short for comfort I've decided to put it on my trusty black calf for the moment until the extra link arrives, although having said that, I think the black calf is the best option for this little beauty!

Beautiful watch, I like the dark dial. Have to agree with the black calf, fits the classic look and feel of the watch perfectly.
Thanks for the post and please post more photo's.
Best health, Frank.

Awesome Stef - that's a great pickup. It looks great with the black dial. I still say the Navi Olympus is the best Olympus model ever made. I still regret selling you mine at times! :lol:

Very Nice..... :lingsrock:

I am going to have to agree on the black leather looking superb, but that Navi bracelet is sooo nice.

I must check if my work colleague still has it (I work in a different office now). I regret selling my silver dial one too, but I did that to buy that blasted B01! Never mind, perhaps I'll pick up another silver one day, oh, and maybe a blue...........................

That's a great piece Stef and I'm sure it's trouble free.

Let's hope it will make you forget the B01 misfortunes.

Enjoy it. :lingsrock:

It looks very very classy on a leather strap and the watch stands out more.
