An absolutely stunning and iconic ‘Twin Jet’ logo 806 Navitimer with beautiful gloss black dial and silver gilt printing, qualities only seen between 1965 / 1966 and making for a more sought after piece.
Made ever more so with the beautiful even Cream patina on the tritium markers and hands, matching to a slight cream tone to the sub dials.
Coming with its original vintage Breitling box, rare yellow Navitimer booklet and World Service papers, this is quite simply the best example of a ‘reverse panda’ dial 806 we have ever seen.
