For most replica watch enthusiasts, the Navitimer name is immediately associated with large chronographs, but in the 1950s Breitling also had a three-hand model in the Navitimer collection, the Reference 66. With the new replica Navitimer 1 Automatic 38, launched at Baselworld 2018, Breitling replica watches expands the Navitimer collection in keeping with that past. With a 38mm case, the new model has something for both men who prefer smaller fake watches and women who like the sporty look of the Navitimer, the right size.
The stainless steel case of the Navitimer 1 Automatic 38 features a redesigned beaded and pawl bi-directional bezel with the signature aviation slide rule, a screw-down case back and comes with either a black or blue dial and matching alligator leather straps. Water resistance is limited to 30 meters / 100 feet. The dial has a date window at 6 o'clock with a matching date disc and a red-tipped seconds hand that contributes to excellent readability along with hour and minute hands with Super-LumiNova luminescence Stainless steel version with rose gold bezel, silver dial and brown alligator leather strap is also available.
The new replica watches are powered by the 4 Hz (28,800 vph) Breitling Caliber 17 based on the ETA 2824-2. Equipped with a double-acting ball-bearing rotor, it offers a power reserve of at least 40 hours and is COSC-certified. The Navitimer 1 Automatic 38 Replica costs 3,920 euros in stainless breitling replica steel with a steel bezel (Ref. A17325211C1P1 and A17325241B1P1) or 5,290 euros in stainless steel with a red gold bezel (Ref. U17325211G1P1). ).In steel, both the textile strap and the Spitfire Automatic with a brown calfskin strap cost exactly $4,450. One might think that the calfskin strap is the logical solution, but I'm not so sure. The Spitfire sings on its factory-supplied fabric strap. The configuration you see here is my absolute top pick: The IWC Pilot's Watch Automatic Spitfire. Case: 39mm x 10.8mm stainless steel with solid case back and screw-down crown. Water resistant up to 6 bar. Soft iron inner case protects the movement from magnetic fields. Movement: new manufacture caliber IWC. 32110 with 28,800 vibrations per hour, 21 jewels, 164 individual parts, 72-hour power reserve, center second; Silicone anchor and escapement wheel.
