Breitling Navitimer Watch ref 806 (1964)
Breitling Navitimer 806 (1964)
This Breitling Navitimer watch serial number 995635 was manufactured in 1964, the Case, Dial, Hands and Movement are in excellent condition.
The gloss gilt dial is excellent for its age and the luminous markers have patina and are no longer luminous.
The name 'Navitimer' is a combination of the words Navigation & Timer, since the watch was originally developed as a navigation watch for pilots, who could use the sliderule to calculate remaining distances, fuel consumption etc. The Navitimer seriously put Breitling on the world map. It’s until today the most famous watch they ever produced and it’s unlikely that it will ever be surpassed. Generally it can be said that the Navitimer with 3 Subdials was made in four editions/generations cased in a small watchcase.
All photographs are of the Actual watch which have not been edited in any way.
The watch was serviced by our very own Rolex trained service technician using only Breitling original parts. The Breitling cal venus 178 movement has been stripped, ultra sonic chemically cleaned and then oiled and re-built. Grade A++ service.
This watch is sold with a 2 year guarantee.
All of our watches can be viewed before purchasing from our West London workshop.
