BreitlingNavitimerModel No: AB0137241L1A1

In 2014, Breitling gave its linchpin Navitimer an attention-grabbing update by introducing it in a massive 46mm case. For decades, the watch had measured 42 and then 43mm in diameter. So, this subtle but significant improvement was indeed much-awaited. But beyond the increased size, the watch cast in stainless steel remains fairly classic. Some of the most characteristic features of the iconic Navitimer are befittingly included - the faceted lugs, the notched rotating bezel, and the dial layout where sub-dials are placed in a horizontal configuration. From the slide rule feature to the date window between four and five, the blue dial on this watch promises constant legibility.

The evolution can be witnessed on the caseback, which has turned exhibition style to showcase Breitling's first in-house calibre B01. It's a self-winding chronograph movement housing a column-wheel with a vertical clutch system and boasts 70 hours of running autonomy. On the wrist, the watch feels extremely elegant and surprisingly not as big as it actually is. With design, aesthetics, and details, it sends forth a quintessential charming pilot-watch aura that we all have come to love and naturally expect from the Navitimer.

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.
