Why the Navitimer is iconic
Introduced in 1952, the Navitimer's circular slide-rule bezel let pilots perform in-flight calculations, and it became the official watch of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association. Its busy, technical dial and rotating slide rule remain among the most distinctive designs in watchmaking.
Checking the price
The asking-price table above shows what partner retailers want for this model right now, by size where titles state one. Within a size, price is driven mostly by materials, condition and completeness (box, receipt, authenticity card).
Sizes & variants
Common variants include 41mm, 43mm and 46mm cases, the modular Calibre 13 versus the in-house Calibre 01, plus the Cosmonaute 24-hour dial and steel, two-tone and gold cases.
How to authenticate
- 1.Check the reference and serial numbers against the model, and confirm the fine slide-rule and dial printing is sharp, legible and correctly aligned rather than blurred.
- 2.Verify weight, chronograph pusher feel and crown action, and compare dial, hands and lume detailing to a known-genuine reference.
- 3.Buy from sellers offering an authentication guarantee, and treat original box, papers and service records as valuable supporting provenance.
Guidance only — always buy from sellers offering an authentication guarantee.
Buying a pre-owned Breitling Navitimer — FAQs
How does the Navitimer slide rule work?
By rotating the outer bezel against the fixed inner scale you can perform multiplication, division and unit conversions such as fuel burn and airspeed; it is a functional analogue calculator, not just decoration.
Is the Navitimer too big to wear daily?
Older models can wear large, but Breitling offers smaller 41mm and 43mm cases that suit most wrists, so trying different sizes or checking lug-to-lug measurements is worthwhile.
In-house Calibre 01 or modular movement?
The in-house Calibre 01 is a column-wheel chronograph with a long power reserve and generally commands more pre-owned, while earlier modular movements are reliable and more affordable.
