The 1959 Breitling 806 Reissue - New Vintage Done Right

That is the best reissue ever made! Just perfect in every way! I got a Navitimer World in 2014 as a graduation / 30 yo present from my family, it is a beautiful watch but after some time I started to notice that it is to big for me. Two weeks ago I found a 60's 806 Navitimer, and it is just the perfect size and has a nice patina and got it for 3300€ witch is a nice price.

I’ve just bought this watch in the U.K. I got number 698. Great video. I’ve subscribed 👍🏻

I found your comments very informative. I have been wearing my Navitimer on a daily basis since purchasing it in 1966, following your mention about the radioactive material used on the face I did a quick check and I have not grown a second head as far as I can see, I am now 75 do you think I should be taking any precautions ?

Nice job TCG. I totally agree that the more faithful the recreation of the case, dial and bracelet the more exciting and special the piece itself becomes - its the design that counts . I feel the upgraded movement and materials technology also add great value to the piece- making it very desirable. For me its about preservation of the artismal design of the creator and the men who subsequently appreciated and used that design. Also Imho size increases (within limits) - - add - not detract - if the original was smaller then 38 mm. ☺.

Can barely hear a thing.

Good video. Very desirable but unfortunately overpriced, especially compared to the speedy.
