I have always wanted to add a Navitimer or Navitimer Chrono-matic to the line up. I knew I wanted the 2006 - 2008 Chrono-matic that has the crown on the proper left side as it closely represents the original Chrono-matic.

I had originally a Seawolf Avenger, Superocean Steelfish, and Avenger Skyland. I decided I would trade the Skyland for this as I will never sell the Seawolf and the Skyland closely looked like the Seawolf. All I can say is I made one of the best decisions Ive made in collecting to pick this up. Im blown away by how nice this watch is made. It was in absolute mint condition. I dont think it was ever worn. I plan to add a Brown Croc Strap to it and a few other straps maybe the Navi bracelet. It is also the perfect size at 44mm not like the new Chronomatic 49 which IMHO is way to big for my wrist. Yes it is a very busy dial but I am a sucker for busy dials.

I would like to take a moment though to give a big THANK YOU to mboverst Matt at DFW Watches. He was unbelievably helpful and patient. I would recommend him to anyone. :lingsrock:

Sorry for the cell pics was just excited to get his up.

One of my favorite Breilting models. granted I am a bit biased. Very good trade IMO.

When you put it on brown calf post some pics as I have been contemplating a set of brown shoes for mine.
