I need help determining whether my father's navitimer is a replica or the real deal. After reading a plethora of information online, there are certain things that have sparked my curiosity as to the watch's origin.


Pics too large to upload to forum...can email or am open to other suggestions.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Dial, subdials, fonts on dial and slide rule and the logo on the dial are wrong sorry.

I can't see the bracelet or caseback well enough in those photos to comment on them.

Have a look here for photos of legit ones, and you'll see the difference

:welcome: and sorry to confirm that it's a fake.

Easiest way to tell is to look at the numbers on the sub-dials compared to the genuine model.
