I have been looking at the Breitling Navitimer World in the black and White face for some time now. I about ready to make the purchase. Im seeing the retail price as $6800 and most places will take off 20% which brings it to $5440.00 I see them online for several hundred dollars less but are not authorized dealers. Is this safe or do you recommend paying the $5440? Any other ideas or suggestions are appreciated.

Also, Anyone have any experience with this watch?
Thanks

Neither.

Online dealers are grey market and they can't offer factory warranty and would not use genuine Breitling parts on any warranty repairs.

I'm assuming that you are in the US so PM jnelson3097 for contact details of George at Govberg and get yourself a great deal, exceptional service and the safety of an AD.

Congrats on your purchase, you won't be disappointed!! The World is a very solid watch; it's big yet so classy; it's absolutely stunning, so many words to describe it...Enjoy it!

Thanks guys! I am def excited! I have been looking at this watch for a long time. I will post some pictures when I get it.
Do any of you use watch winders? I'm sure I wont be wearing it all the time so I know it stops after a couple days.

I agree the white face looks quite a bit larger. The 2 tone in black and blue give the effect of a smaller face because the colors dont bleed together. The white is beautiful as well but looks much more flashy and noticeable. While I do want the watch to be noticeable I felt like a rapper when I was trying it on HA Also with my lack of tan, the Black face was a nice contrast.

I do use them, mainly for watches with no quickset date but also otherwise.

I have a Navi World Blue face I simply love!
I did buy it a few months old and paid much less.

Congrats, a true classic watch!
