At that price, I would go for something else, or for the steel version, but still, quite a nice one. 

Best,

But this one is a stunner! I wish they did more vintage re-editions of the navitimer...

Sat for over a year at my local AD. They put it back in the safe and I picked it up over a year later 😊. Swapped out the strap - didn’t particularly like the black calf. I’m looking for the cosmonaute re-issue but not going to pay the current pre-owned premium. ADs are struggling to get any as far as I can tell.
