Who can look exact and tell me:

How many beads real has the Navitimer 806 with the bigger beads ?


But take care, it is not an easy question.

Counted again, got 93 once, the rest of the time 92.

Better things to do than play silly games, if you have a later one with fewer beads then let's see it.

Sorry, I don't get it.

We know that the number of beads reduced / size increased from 195x to the time when they disappeared. The biggest ones (62 / 63) based on what I have are 92.

You asked how many were for the bigger beads, I said 92, you said wrong and then said that you had some with 95, 93 and 92.

To me that suggests that you agree that the largest beads (and therefore the fewest number) is 92 - just like I said.

By my reckoning that means that you owe me $100 based on your offer above.



I take PayPal.......

I like to pay the $ 100 if this issue is completely resolved.

Excuse, if I disturbe you again, but are you sure that your 1962/63 Navitimer has 92 beads and not 93 ?

I ask it, because I think, with the number of beads we can loose the question of the 1953 Navitimers,.

Now I begin to get trunken, because i must drink a bottle of wine during the counting, but all my 1960s Navitimers have 93 ore more beads, only the first 1953's Navitimers have 92 beads.

Perhaps this is the source of the counting discrepancy? :D

...but I must admit, I only counted twice as it is so annoying, so maybe I've got it wrong. :D
Best,

It was not a comment to anybody, and why unnecessary ?

I estimate the collection and the specialized knowledge of Kurt B. very high, even if sometimes his personal agressions annoy me.

The question was meant honest, why he does not give us simply his correct answer ?

Hi Tom

I enjoy everytime time about your beautiful early Navitimer.

No we have only to find out together, which time the number of beads changed to 53 and the mystery is solved .

I am really sorry but I think that you are sarcastic. That is what I have to say in this matter.
