BreitlingNavitimerModel No: AB0117131B1P1-1

With its simple bidirectional bezel, an uncluttered dial, and Breitling’s new calibre B01, this Navitimer 8 is a stark departure from the Navitimers Breitling fans have known and loved. Nevertheless, this refreshing iteration of an icon is equally pleasing and surprisingly straightforward. Characterised by a clean, legible style, this reference AB0117131B1P1 adeptly combines the classic pilot’s watch DNA with muted elements, presenting a timepiece that could be easily used and flaunted by a more varied group of wearers. The case, 43 mm wide, is executed in stainless steel with smooth lines and bevelled lugs. A screw-down crown ensures the watch is 100m water resistant.

On the dial, a tri-register configuration is seen with a white on black colourway. Arabic numeral hour and minute markers are preceded by an index chapter ring, all arranged in perfect harmony. The dial is completely luminous and has a date aperture fixed between four and five o’clock. Breitling’s self-winding calibre B01 ensures timekeeping is a breeze. In addition, the vertical clutch column wheel mechanism allows for the chronograph function to work seamlessly.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
