I've always felt the Navitimer has a far more iconic design than either the Speedmaster or Daytona. And far from detracting from the impact, the complexity and busyness of the dial actually adds to the appeal for me. It's just so well balanced and fun, even though the slide rule will remain an enigma in perpetuity ... because I just don't care. What I care about is emotional impact, and the Navitimer provides that in abundance. And that includes the new models. A little expensive perhaps (like all Breitlings), but a fantastic watch nonetheless. I think if Breitling priced their watches closer to Omegas and Tudors they would be more popular and successful. After all, they certainly have the designs to dominate the others in my view.

I'm a Professional Pilot Flying the world's biggest Jet. I just collected my 43 B01 Navitimer. I love it. Perfect watch for flying. Reminds me of days of my flying career, where we had to use the slide ruler, we used to hang it on our collar, and had to do calculations on the fly. Wish I had such a luxury watch those days.. In todays modern age of jet flying its more of a piece to have on your wrist to feel those precious days which you had spent learning the art of flying. A well built watch.."If one day my aircrafts Chronograph stops working during a Holding Pattern" I could show off My Brietling and its chrono function ;)

Just pulled the trigger on a Navitimer, my first luxury wrist watch! Ended up going with the 43mm black dial with gold wings, the AB0120 from two generations ago. Should be arriving this week in the mail and I could not be more excited. Most will disagree but I've always thought the Navitimer had the coolest loooking dial in all of watchmaking due to its slide rule. I will say I'm not a huge fan of the new models though, I don't like most of the new colors aside from the black 43 and white 41 models but not a fan of the blue, ice blue, green or mint green ones. Too playful for a serious watch like this in my opinion. Also I really don't like how they removed the tachymeter scale and the new ones just don't look the same to me because of that.
@attila2246
@attila2246 2 жыл бұрын
You can replicate the tachymeter quite easily with the slide rule so I don't mind that too much. Think it helps modernise the dial a bit by making it cleaner but I can understand why some people aren't a fan. My gripe is that the slide rule isn't angled as steeply, the watch looks a bit shallower. Still incredible to look at and wear though.

Breitling's history and back catalogue of designs is phenomenal, but I feel they are failing to hit the right notes with watch collectors. For example, their recent superocean release looks AWESOME and aesthetically appeals to people who understand the deep cut history of the slow chronograph. But then they ruin the magic by relegating the big minutes rehaut to just a design feature with no actual slow chrono functionality.

Love it. But why is there dust or dirt inside the case? It's brand new right. My Breitlings surely didn't come with that option. You can see it at every shot between near the top of the hour hand and the B from the Breitling logo. There's a few spots that are reflections but that spot stands out. At first I thought it's the camera but the hands move over it is clearly inside the case.

Among pilots, we have some grail watches. The Navitimer is one of them, together with GMT Master II and IWC Pilot Chronograph. When someone is promoted as a Captain, is a tradition to get a nice watch. As now the GMT Master II is out of reach at retail price, and lost a bit the aviation related spirit, becoming more a fashion watch for travellers and non travellers, this ice blue Navitimer will be a strong contender to Rolex. I've never considered Daytona a pilot watch. Is a nice chrono, a bit overrated in my opinion. As an "honourable mention" I would say now the Tudor BB GMT is becoming very popular among pilots community, as it gives the same robustness and function of the Rolex, without having headache or concerns while working around the planet.

I think this is the winner in the battle with speedy for sure. In order for speedy to win my heart it will have to go automatic and provide more dials in the 42 and under range. I like them from far but the plastic looking black dial really could be refreshed imo. That’s where Rolex Daytona is the best imo, they don’t try to stick as close to the original design which allows them to make the watch which delivers the qualities of better everyday wearer (for example water resistance and simpler look), that’s how such watches end up on wrists of famous people in the end of the day.

Is anyone else disturbed by the red speckles of paint under the chronograph second hand that gets reflected on the high polished hour and minute hands ? I can't unsee it.

YES!!!!!! (and that tiny speck of dirt on the dial next to the logo) It's something you would never see with the naked eye, but in these macro shots it is SOOOO distracting I don't think I could own one because I know it's there.

@@jasonchaney5382 yeah I saw the tiny black something next to the logo too. So that is why (to me) given the choice between this one and a speedy I'd take the speedy. And, we can appreciate for the same price (and probably a bit less) grand seiko finish is stunning

This is not an alternative for a Rolex. A navitimer is always a firat choice, and actually better finished than a Rolex. A Superocean is more suitable alternative to a Rolex IMO...

I love what Breitling is doing, no doubt they make some handsome pieces. But my ocd is kicking in with these macro shots. Is it just me? Or is that red hand just unfinished and unpainted on the bottom side?

I'm not knocking Rolex, but the Navitimer is far more discrete. No one ever takes any notice of mine even when I'm wearing short sleeves, but a Rolex is a bit 'in your face' in my humble opinion and more of a target for the more undesirable creatures within our society.

Hi People! I’ve recently purchased a new Navitimer online and I’ve noticed there’s a small peck of dust/metal shrivel on the dial. The watch is under warranty, sold on c2*, listed as brand new/unworn. Has anyone had experience like this? Shall I have breitling take care of it as a manufacturer issue under warranty and wait, or send it back to the seller?

Cool watch. But annoying. The main hand of a chronograph is painted red on its upper side and on the left and right side aswell. But on the botom its silver. Everytime it passes over hour or minute hand or over hour markers, battons you can see it. How big of a cheapskate guys at Breitling are to do that. And if they did that on the dial of the watch, what else is there in the movement?

Ugh again with the unfinished chronograph hand and multiple mirrored surfaces. Even if you can't see it with your naked eye, seeing the unfinished and dirty looking underside of the hand in these macro shots makes you always "know" that your watch is like this. This is an instant nope.

Why don't high end watch makers polish both sides of the hands? Your buying fit and finish yet most makers don't finish the underside of the hands. With the mirrored finish of the top side, you can see the ugly underside of the top hands off the reflection. It bugs the hell out of me.

Oh how it bugs me when the seconds hand goes past the polished markers or hands and you can see that the bottom of the seconds hand is neither polished nor painted but has paint splattered around. I think they could do better at that price range...
