I was just looking on this website and came acorss this and figured it might interest some members on here. I'm not sure what to think about the price. Is everything accurate on this watch?

Looks generally good (except chrono seconds). Dates to '55 which is consistent for a 72 (they are 1954 - 55). BOW code is also more usual for a 72 powered Navitimer.

Also usual not to find 806 on the caseback of these. Conspiracy theorists will tell you that this is because these were the first ever Navitimers and as they were AOPA only didn't have a model reference (those folk will argue that 52 / 53 806s are really from around 1960).

Price, yes, well.........
