Hi, everyone!

Has anybody checked out the latest WatchTime? They have a short, and quite favorable, review of the Navi 01. One of the things they point out is that the rate has superior stability. For some reason, though, they did not put the actual measurement stats in the piece... They used a limited edition for this and had a nice pic of the display-back, noting that this is a rare feature on Breitlings.

:lingsrock:

Yeah, I received my copy a few weeks ago and saw that. They obviously did like it, and I think that it was a pretty good review. I do like how WatchTime conducts these tests as it is consistent criteria for different watches.

I have the issue as well, not a bad review. I personally loved all the info on the B01 as I have that movement in my Chronomat 01. IIRC, they said the rate didn't move after their test, but I don't remember how long it was, several days normally.

This fabulous watch deserves more than a "mini-review".

Here's a full length one here :wink:
