WHY THIS WATCH

In 1952, Willy Breitling was approached by the renowned US Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) and requested to create a new chronograph for its members. Willy decided to create an innovative wrist-worn instrument that would enable pilots to perform flight calculations, including average speed, distance traveled, fuel consumption, rate of climb or descent, and conversion of miles to kilometers or nautical miles. This gave birth to the first Navitimer. The Breitling Navitimer is one of few chronographs that has remained in production for over 50 years. 

The Navitimer B01 was unveiled in 2014. Breitling introduced it's in-house chronograph movement for this model, the B01. This is a column-wheel chronograph with quick-set date change. 

On the wrist, this is a large watch, clocking in a 46mm in diameter. Breitling is one of the only watches that has found a way to make a dial that is busy but legible. The in-house chronograph movement is a joy to activate, very smooth upon activation. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS Watch was purchased in 2021 and was worn only a handful of times. The watch is overall Near Mint with no noticeable scratches on the watch and only a touch of wear on the factory strap and buckle. The watch comes with the box, manuals, and original purchase receipt. No warranty card. This watch currently retails for $9,200.

WHY THIS WATCH

Launched in 1995, the Navitmer Montbrillant had a long 16 year run, until it was discontinued in 2011. The watch was named after a narrow street behind the Breitling manufacturing facility. 

The Navitimer Montbrillant was made for those of us who appreciate the classic looks of the Navitimer, but prefer a smaller diameter. This watch is 36.5mm in diameter, (38mm if you include the bezel). 

The rest of the watch is classic Breitling, with the classic slide-rule bezel, and tri-compax subdials at 3/6/9. Inside we have the chronograph Calibre 41, with a date function at 4:30.

THE LITTLE DETAILS Watch is from 2005. Watch is in overall excellent condition, with normal wear throughout the case, see pictures. Chronograph is running strong and resetting to zero without issues. Comes on the pictured leather strap only. No box or papers.

WHY THIS WATCH

The Breitling Navitimer launched in 1952, was designed for pilots and aviation enthusiasts. Its innovative slide rule bezel enables complex flight-related calculations, making it a groundbreaking aviation tool. Over the decades, the Navitimer has evolved, incorporating self-winding chronograph movements and updated designs while maintaining its status as a revered pilot's instrument and horological icon.

The watch's particular Navitimer comes in a 41mm case, with a gold rotating bezel, and features a black dial, elegantly complemented by luminescent rose gold outlined hour and minute hands. A large red sweeping seconds hand and rose gold applied index hour markers with luminescent tips add to its refined appearance. Three black chronograph subdials are present, including a 30-minute counter at 12 o'clock, a 12-hour counter at 6 o'clock, and a small seconds subdial at 9 o'clock. A tachymeter scale runs along the outer edge, and a discreet date window is located at the 3 o'clock position, completing the watch's sophisticated design.

This watch is powered by the Breitling Caliber 13, an automatic chronograph movement that is widely used in various Breitling timepieces. The Caliber 13 is based on the reliable and robust Valjoux/ETA 7750 movement, which has been modified and enhanced by Breitling to meet their specifications and high standards. The Breitling Caliber 13 is a self-winding, mechanical movement that features a 42-hour power reserve, a quick-set date function, and a chronograph with 1/4th second, 30-minute, and 12-hour counters. The movement oscillates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz), ensuring precise timekeeping. The Breitling Caliber 13 is also COSC-certified, which means it has undergone rigorous testing for accuracy and reliability.

On the wrist, this watch fits perfectly on my wrist. 41mm is the perfect size for a Navitimer in my opinion. I didn't expect to like the gold bezel, but after wearing it I find it gives the Navitimer just the right amount of bling.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

This watch was purchased brand new, and worn sparingly. The watch has some normal wear and is around 9/10. The movement is keeping excellent time with the chronograph functioning well and resetting to zero. The watch comes with the factory light brown Breitling leather band, which is near mint, and a factory Breitling deployment clasp. The watch comes with all you see in the pictures including the outer box, inner box, warranty card, and manuals.

WHY THIS WATCH

Inspiration from the Past

 

In the 1950's diving was starting to become a more popular sport around the world. It was at this time in 1957 that Breitling released the SuperOcean Chronograph, reference 807. The reference 807 was designed for divers who needed a hearty and reliable watch for their underwater explorations. The SuperOcean line was water resistant to 200m, which was huge at the time. They also carried a distinctive style, including triangle shaped hands as well as circular/triangular hour markers. Breitling has carried the inspiration from this model to today, with this 44mm DLC Coated Superocean Chronograph. 

Ceramic At Last with a Great Calibre

 

Unlike older SuperOceans, this one replaces the standard (and very scratchable) aluminum bezel with a hearty, scratch proof Ceramic Bezel. 

Inside this beast we have a Breitling In-House Calibre B20, which has a 70 hour power reserve, bi-directional automatic rotor, quickset date, and hacking seconds. The hacking seconds feature is important as it stops the second hand when you pull the crown, enabling you to set the time to the exact second. You'd be surprised at how many modern manufactured movements don't hack! I'll also mention that this movement is Chronometer rated, which is a certification handed to movements that meet strict timing and functional standards. Breilting has really stepped up it's movements in recent years, and has come a long way from the off-the-shelf ETAs of the past. 

          Wrist Impressions

On the wrist this is a large watch, that wears a touch smaller due to the comfortable Rubber Strap. Blue strap, Blue dial, Blue bezel, aesthetically this is a divers watch. The Ceramic bezel is okay, even though I have seen better executions, it will do the job and be scratch free. I love these mesh style rubber straps, and I love how Breilting has put a micro-adjust into the deployment. I can get the perfect fit every time. This watch is very legible due to the special hour hand. This watch would make a great daily wearer for someone with big wrists. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

This watch is guaranteed 100% Authentic Breitling. Watch was purchased from an Authorized Breitling Dealer in 2018 and was worn sparingly. The watch is still under Breitling Warranty until Mid-2023, all you do have to do is take the electronic warranty card (included) and the watch into Breitling if you have any issues.

The case is showing only very light wear, around 93%-95%. The movement is running strong and keeping excellent time. The Rubber strap was barely worn, almost new. The watch comes with the Outer White Box, Inner Breitling Box, Manuals, Tag, and Warranty Card. Comes on the Rubber Strap with the Factory Breitling Deployment.

Breitling has carried the inspiration from this model to today, with this 44mm DLC Coated Superocean Chronograph. 

DLC Love

 

This watch is 44mm in diameter with a DLC coated steel case, and limited edition green dial with black eye sub-registers. This watch is big and bold, and isn't shy about showing it. Because the watch comes on a mesh style rubber strap that is extremely comfortable, it's wearable despite being 44mm and over 15mm thick. I'll also mention the Rubber strap comes with a micro-adjust feature on the deployment, assuring the perfect fit as your wrist expands and contracts. 

Bullet-Proof Calibre

 

In the past, Breitling watches have used off-the-shelf ETA Calibres for most of their movements. In 2009, Breitling announced it's first in-house chronograph movement after 5 years of Research and Development. The B01 is a column-wheel self-winding chronograph with a vertical coupling system which eliminates hand-jumping when the chronograph is activated. The movement also utilizes an index regulating system inside the movement which allows for easy rate adjustment. It's got 70 hours of Power Reserve off of a single barrel. In terms of finishing, this movement is nicely finished but don't expect it to be at the level of a Patek or AP. We've got the standard Cotes De Geneve, Circular Finishing, and diamond-polished bevels. 

  

Wrist Impressions

 

On the wrist this is a large watch, that wears a touch smaller due to the comfortable Rubber Strap. The Green Dial has a very nice shimmer to it, especially in direct light. The DLC coating makes this mostly a sporty watch that would be hard to dress up. Working the chronograph, you can really tell the in-house movement was worth it, with stop start and reset of the chronograph on a different level. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch is Guaranteed 100% Authentic. Watch is under Breitling Factory Warranty until 2026. Only 250 examples of this watch were made and the watch is sold out everywhere. Watch is in in Near Mint Condition. The Bezel, Case and Strap are all mint condition. The only wear is on the deployment clasp, which has some normal wear (see pictures). This watch comes with the full set of Box and Papers including tag, manuals, and warranty card. Please note, serial numbers are blurred out for pictures only. We only sell watches with the full serial number intact.

WHY THIS WATCH

It's rare for Cartier to come out with watches that have a completely new case shape. That was the case for the Drive De Cartier, which was introduced at SIHH in 2016. Think of a more rounded version of the Cartier tank, and you come close to the cushion shape of this watch. 

Besides the case, you get a lot of the intersting details Cartier is known for, including the Blue Spinel cabochon gemstone set into the crown, some very nice Guilloche and radial patterns on the dial, and a set of gorgeous blued hands that change depending color depending on the lighting. This watch somehow straddles the line between new and old. It seems like the design of this watch is going to age very well and still look classic as the years roll on. 

This watch is powered by the Cartier 1904-PS, which is an in-house automatic calibre introduced in 2010. It's certainly not the most exclusive calibre on the market, but for the price you're getting a reliable workhorse movement that's appropriate for a dressed up daily wearer. 

On the wrist, this watch is deceptively comfortable. Although it's 40mm, it fits much smaller due to the case design and 12mm case height. Overall, I would say that for the retail price of $6,800, this is a fantastic daily wearing watch that's going to look good years down the line. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS Watch was purchased from in 2021 and comes with the full set of Box, Papers, Warranty Card, as well as an additional leather strap. This watch has been registered with Cartier Care, is UNDER CARTIER WARRANTY UNTIL 2029. The watch is Near Mint, and was worn only a handful of times, around 95%-97%.

WHY THIS WATCH

The Cartier Pasha was introduced in 1985, as a tribute to the Pasha of Marrakesh, a lifelong customer of Louis Cartier. The original Pasha was an oversized, waterproof watch that was cased fully in yellow gold, it drew design inspiration from an archival model dating back to 1943.

The Cartier Pasha has managed to remain stylish since it was introduced and this has something to do with it's design touches most notably the screw-down chain crown (which also doubles as a crown protector). You may or may not be surprised to learn that the Pasha was designed by none other than designer extraordinaire Gerald Genta. Gerald designed the Pasha a full 13 years after he created the legendary Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. With it's striking design the Pasha de Cartier has been a cult icon since its creation. 

This particular iteration of the Pasha is the chronograph. At 36mm it hits just the right spot in terms of size. With it's 'T' Lugs, integrated bracelet, and cap+chain crown protector and perfect size, this is a very versatile watch that can be worn by just about anyone for just about any occasion. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch is from 200XX. The watch is in overall near mint condition, and was worn only a handful of times. Only very light wear on the case and bracelet. The watch comes with the original Cartier Box and Papers. The watch is running strong without any issues.
