It's a great watch and nice shots too!
Any indication of a dealer/seller not knowing what they are selling is always a risk, as is buying from certain places.
Again a very cool timepiece!
Mind boggling ignorance of their product
Upon doing my research on the Breitling Navitimer A35330 I found out that this was 2003-4 special -honoring 100 year of powered flight. It had a ETA 2892A2 movement and it was a FLYBACK. That’s a big deal to any watch enthusiast -it’s cool feature -it’s w...
The 'B' logo on the chrono hand makes it a no for me...
...GO does the same thing...drives me crazy.
Works for me
The inspiration for this watch is a Chronomat from the forties ( I was able to find a pic ) old vintage vibe -modern watch quality really rings my bells! ...
My vintage experience
Found a beautiful Gallet Flying Officer -the chronograph registers were kinda sticky ( sometimes they worked sometimes not so much) go to my watch maker and 8 weeks and $670 later -I get my Flying Officers back and -same issues. Watchmaker says “ it’s a 5...
Not sure who is to blame for it…
Maybe Breitling itself? 😅 No wording what so ever not on front (dial) nor on the back! It is a special movement indeed - well rather DD module on ordinary ETA2892 (although with Breitling typical Chronometer grading) -, as it just counts the first 10min. ...
Yeah
you would think Breitling would have some mention somewhere on the watch. I think the chronograph is not a modular as the pushers line up with the crown ...
It is a DD module, yes.
If you draw a line from pusher to pusher, you know what I mean…
It's a great watch and nice shots too!
Any indication of a dealer/seller not knowing what they are selling is always a risk, as is buying from certain places. Again a very cool timepiece!
I like it!
I hate to give the old "if only it didn't have a date window" spiel but that would make it super convincing. In any case, that's a beautiful Flyback Navitimer! As a B person myself I don't mind the B counterbalance😊
No question -no date would be better
Ya can’t get everything -actually the only thing that I wish it had was the modern 70 hour power reserve -I have two watches that have it and for me it’s important!
Maybe they're just overwhelmed by the sheer volume of numbers on those dials.
But all the better for those that know...ya know what I mean???
17 December 2003
Slightly off topic but a highly relevant celebration. It was a beautiful cool blue sky day with little wind everywhere in the UK. Four pilots including me decided we should celebrate 100 years of powered flight, so we each flew a Piper PA28 in a formation...
Nice recollection
The stat I love from this is that the “length of a 747 is longer than the distance of the first flight”
Gallet Flying Officer
Enter text -such a cool piece -maybe I should have lived with the sticky registers ...
