Does anyone know if the Navitimer A23322 was ever sold with the option of the Air Racer bracelet? The production date of the watch states 0208, but the Store says they received the watch new from Breitling in 2010. It jas the air racer and I just wanted to know if it could have come from Breitling that way.

Thank you!

As above, the Air Racer bracelet came out in 2009, and the fact that the production date of the watch was 0208 isn't a problem as watches can take a while from production to get to the shop. The timelines fit, and an A23322 Navi could easily have been ordered on an Air Racer.

It's also entirely possible that the watch was delivered to the dealer as head only and the AD decided what to display it on.

Slightly off topic - My Navi is also dated 0208 and it was purchased new in Nov. 2010.
