Dear members,

I am interested in purchasing a Navitimer 806 E from a trusted dealer. The watch is in good condition with the exception of the dial.

Would any of you know if Breitling has a service dial for this model? Reading some threads, my understanding is that in early 2000s, a luminova service dial was available. That said, I have not been able to get a clear answer directly from Breitling. There service center requires me to send in the watch in order to let me know.

Your help/guidance is much appreciated.

yes, they do have replacement dials - but will not sell those as parts anymore, only with a (prohibitively expensive) full service.

THANKS Very much for quick replay. So to clarify, they will replace the dial for me if I send in the watch for a full service that they will push to do on the watch?

yes, but make sure to get a quote - and think hard whether it's worth it.
US or Europe ?

so that's better. www.horologicalservices.com the Heists do the vintage service for Breitling in the US, not cheap, but MUCH better than other countries.
waiting time 9-12 months though ....
