Circa 1960s.
Featured here is a vintage Breitling Navitimer Reference 806 in a stainless steel case with the factory original plexiglass crystal. The slide rule rotating straight cut bezel works great and the watch sets and winds smoothly. The chronograph push buttons both function exceptionally well as one would expect from a Breitling. There are some light scratches on the case and the dial shows some patina matching its age but nothing outrageous that would diminish the overall craftsmanship of this beautiful vintage timepiece. This watch is powered by a manual-winding chronograph caliber Venus 178 movement with 17 jewels that runs strong and kept good time over a 24 hour period. The case measures approximately 41mm wide x 48mm in overall length. *NS
