Dear all
How difficult is it to source an 806 bezel?
The last of the true navitimer bezel designs I.e. remodel of the 2nd generation? 1964 to 1970.
Thanks

Ive not seen one in the last 7 years or so, your best best is finding a donor watch (which will fetch about 2000-2500 if they are offered)

Good luck !

I suspect that in a few years they will just be able to 3D print you a new one. Just need patience :-)

From what I hear from Bill Shaine that's not to far from the truth.... Watch that 'ebay' space!
