Gents and ladies,
Does anyone know which Navitimer bracelet will fit the Navitimer 125th Anniversary?
BR/wessa.

Not sure if there is a Navitimer bracelet designed for it - it was launched with the Air Racer (straight end links and not close fit so effectively a strap fit).

Well the Navi bracelet for the Chronomatic 44 would work. It's end links are similar to the current Pilot and Speed bracelet end links - fits like a strap. I'd wager Breitling still has some around. My local AD may even have one. They did a while back.

My concern would be the springbar location. If you look at pictures of the air racer it is a long way from the case and with the flexible bracelet it might be a weird fit.

Yeah, there would definitely be more space than a Breitling strap. When I got my 01 in 12/11, they ordered the wrong bracelet - it was the same as the CM 44 I have. I wore it on that bracelet until the correct one came in. It was "ok." Not great, not bad. When we spend that much for a watch, I guess "ok" isn't quite enough.

Hi Guys,

I found this thread and would like to ask if you think a 447a would fit the 125th.

It's the same size case as the 01 and the 01 came with an Air Racer bracelet as well (same lug holes maybe).

I suppose the other way to ask is, do the 01 and the 125th use the same watch case, after having a good look at them both I'm thinking the lug holes are in the same position.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks Guys

You would have to try it and see, it's not designed to fit and I'm not convinced that the case is the same.
