Is there any demand for them?

Does anyone know the going price on them?

Logo dial versions don't generally command any more than regular versions. A check on eBay and Chrono24 will help you out on general Navitimers with this model number and Google can help you find a few of the Top Gun versions listed for sale in the last coupe of years.

Being smaller than the regular Navitimer, the 92 is less popular than the regular 41mm model. I suspect the Top Gun logo could reduce rather than increase demand as it's often seen as a bit corny. At least it has the real USN Fighter Weapons School logo rather than the film version.

They don't come up for sale very often so if you're selling, set an optimistic price and invite offers. If there's someone looking for one, you might get lucky!

Does anyone know where I can get the TOPGUN logo for a watch? I want to put the logo from a watch like this one in an old B-1.

You can't.

Breitling only produces the dial for the LEs.
