Field Report: UK Top Fake Breitling Navitimer 806 Watches Venus 178 Circa 1970

One of my favorites from my collection, purchased in July of 2015, is a 1970 Venus 178 Breitling 806 Navitimer twin jet with nice provenance.

The 41 mm diameter stainless steel best Swiss replica Breitling Navtimer case features a caseback that’s engraved “Drew Pirie” — who was a golf pro, pilot, and son of Andy Pirie, an Australian commando in WWII who bought and engraved the watch for him. (Over the years, dating back to the original in 1952, luxury UK fake Breitling Navitimer watches have come in 38 mm, 41 mm, 43 mm, and 46 mm case diameters. The 806, however, has come only in 38 mm and 41 mm diameters.)

Special thanks to Fred Mandelbaum (@Watchfred) and Eric (@faded_lume) for authenticating the copy watches for sale for me prior to purchase and Eric for finding and getting information via a Facebook search of Andy Pirie through his son Drew after I made the purchase.

In the early 1950s, AAA perfect Breitling replica watches collaborated with the AOPA (Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association) to make the slide rule bezel of its Chronomat even more relevant to pilots. They jointly produced the Navitimer. The slide rule bezel contains two logarithmic scales. The outer scale rotates bi-directionally, and the inner scale is fixed. Together, they can perform a variety of calculations. Pilots primarily used the cheap Breitling Navitimer fake watches site to calculate speed and distance. This would help them to track important elements such as flight times, fuel consumption, or wind impact. If you’re not a pilot like most of us, you can still use the Navitimer’s slide rule bezel for more applicable daily life events such as calculating the tip on a bill, converting miles to kilometers, Fahrenheit to Celsius, or even dollars to Euros.

The very first 806 replica Breitling Navitimer watches wholesale store came with all-black dials but eventually, the sub-registers were changed to white and increased in size to make them more legible. Navitimers 806s were available up to the end of the original Breitling company in 1978-1979 and with the modern Breitling company since the Swiss movements super clone Breitling Navitimer Ref. 806 1959 Re-Edition watches from 2019.

Verdict

The new Navitimer Ref. 806 1959 Re-Editions look great, however, I prefer the vintage 806 Breitling Navtimer replica watches for men, and you can typically still find them for less than the brand new version.

Replica Breitling Watches’ History

Breitling has been producing replica watches for sale since 1884, and was the first watches company to move the chronograph activation button away from the crown in 1914. A significant game-changer came in 1932 when they added a second pusher to reset the chronograph. Breitling fake watches for men and women then innovated again in 1941 with the introduction of the Chronomat, the first replica watches wholesale store with a basic circular slide rule on the rotating bezel, which was used for computations.

Civilian air travel boomed following World War II. By 1952, a more complex slide rule combined with a chronograph made the new Navitimer a favorite of both hobby and professional pilots who relied on analog technology. (This was famously documented when NASA astronaut Scott Carpenter flew the Mercury-Atlas 7 mission with best quality fake Breitling Navitimer Cosmonaute watches on his wrist.) During this period, Swiss luxury Breitling replica watches solidified its image as synonymous with aviation.

Famed jazz trumpeter Miles Davis was also known to wear top AAA Breitling Navitimer replica watches — it’s easy to spot on his left wrist in photos from the 1960s. In Thunderball, James Bond wears Swiss movements fake Breitling Top Time watches with a (prop) Geiger counter complication. On the mega-hit television show Seinfeld, a careful eye can spot Jerry Seinfeld almost always wearing Breitling copy watches for sale. (Seinfeld still wears best 1:1 replica Breitling Aerospace watches when performing his live stand-up act.) On any given Sunday, you’ll find James Brown wearing a Navitimer on the pre-game show NFL Today.

The consumer transparency of the exchange program is non-traditional in Swiss watchmaking, and benefits the consumer by allowing both brands to add refinement to their 2021 luxury super clone watches while maintaining a competitive market position.

“Blacksteel” is what perfect UK sale replica Breitling calls the black carbon-coated steel which some of its cases are made of, including the new Swiss made fake Breitling Navitimer 46 Blacksteel.

TBT Unusually Common And Forgotten Skin Diver Breitling Ref. 3865 Replica UK

Have you noticed these four lines of text above the 6 o’clock on the perfect UK sale fake Breitling ref. 3865? This Rolex-like fairytale read amuses me each time I see it. And trust me, I can’t help but notice it each time I look at the dial. It is truly awesome and something I’m very happy to share with you today.

When one says Swiss made Breitling replica, most see pilot chronographs. Divers watches super clone come to mind only later. I bet any diver that does jump to mind is somehow unusual. Let me guess, you see the spectacular “slow-motion” waterproof fake SuperOcean ref. 2005 or the true collector‘s grail replica Breitling ref. 1004. I doubt you, the Fratell, thought about the modest but equally interesting skin diver Breitling ref. 3865 replica.

Meeting best copy Breitling ref. 3865

The AAA high-quality fake Breitling ref. 3865 is like David Beckham’s younger brother. Nobody knows he exists. Or maybe he even doesn’t exist, nobody cares. I don’t blame you, I didn’t know if the ref. 3865 either. It was only when I was working on the practical replica SuperOcean ref. 2005 article that I bumped into a leaflet where these two stood next to each other. With all eyes on David Beckham, obviously. Well, my recently developed affection towards skin divers couldn’t let the younger Breitling go unnoticed any longer.

Rob Nudds has entered the building: It isn’t often I wade into an article halfway through, but I just wanted to apologise to Lynne Georgina Beckham and Joanne Louise Beckham, David’s elder and younger sisters respectively. We see you and respect you. We certainly care you exist. Now back to Tomas…

5-digits serial

If there is something I enjoy more than digging through information on forums, it is reading very old watch forum threads from times when there was not much information around. In this watch thread, you can see how Breitling aficionado encounters the 1:1 best UK sale replica Breitling ref. 3865 and how muses over the legitimacy of the 5-digit serial no. 28359 that does not fit any known range. It was 10 years ago in 2011 and knowledgable super clone Breitling collectors surmised that it was actually genuine, but the thrill of that exploratory period was memorable to this day.

Why I am bringing it up today? There are not many high-quality replica Breitling ref. 3865 watches around and not even a handful with an arrow hour hand. So you can imagine how amused I was when I found out that my example left the factory with the closest serial number possible to the example mentioned by Fred 10 years ago. When I spoke to Fred about a more precise introduction year, he said, “the mid-1960s is as good as it gets.” Well, still better than just a “feeling” you have to go on with hundreds of other watches…

Catalog error super clone Breitling ref. 3865 vs ref. 3875

In vintage watch collecting there are many rules and DYODD is one of them. Do your own due diligence. Before I speak to a knowledgeable collector, I try to find as much information as I can. Well, it was not a long process when it came to the exact replica Breitling ref. 3865. What really puzzled me was one of the print ads that shows the skin diver Breitling replica UK under ref. 3875. I assumed a different bezel, hands, or movement configuration. When I could not find anything on the ref. 3875, I approached Fred again. Instead of an interesting unraveling, I got a fast and simple answer. “That seems to be a catalog error,“ said Fred. I believe you might find it useful if you decide to chase one down and are puzzled like I was.

Fake Breitling Watches With Date Windows

(Non)typical skin diver

From a construction point of view, the Swiss movement fake Breitling ref. 3865 isn’t very special. It is housed in a standard case that was used by many other not so well-recognized brands. In the “B” creative vintage divers watches portfolio, the ref. 3865 looks unusually common. On the other hand, that’s what makes the 3865 special. Put in other words, it is quite surprising for divers watch collectors see a typical skin diver branded with a Breitling logo. Original case manufacturer’s logo, assumingly Squale after discussion with divers watches specialist, was drilled out. My example is very well preserved and the circular brushing on the top side of the lugs is still perfectly visible. It perfectly contrasts with the polished sides and polished bezel.

1:1 perfect replica Breitling ref. 3865 bezel variants

Speaking of the bezel, there are two variants available. As confirmed by old Swiss made replica Breitling catalogs and adverts, there was a “busier“ bezel with indexes engraved all around the 60 minutes track. I prefer the simplified bezel with 5-minute marking that you can see here. It’s clean, easy to read and I really like the font style selected for the numbers. My assumption is that this bezel version is of an earlier date.

Stainless Steel Cases Fake Breitling Watches

Hands question

If you google the AAA best super clone Breitling ref. 3865, you will find more reference pictures popping with straight rectangular hands and with matching second hands with a rectangular tip. We haven‘t seen a catalog shot of this version, but based on multiple findings we believe it’s legit. If I were you, I would search for the version featured today which proves how a handset can completely change the charisma of a watch. Instead of a boring rectangular hand you get a broad arrow hour hand. Notice the tapering neck that the arrow tip is sitting on. It’s super short and hence looks very unorthodox. Shape-wise, it’s a nice nod to the older and now legendary wholesale fake Breitling ref. 1004 online.

The 36mm case was a normal market sizing for a divers‘ watch back then, but by Breitling’s standards, we can call it quite a modest case. I like the minute hand and the seconds hand as much as I like the arrow hand. The Arabic numbers 12, 6, 9 give the watch a sporty character and the date integrated at 3 o’clock gives it some everyday practicality. Some collectors double question the red printing on the date ring, but as shown in this vintage catalog, no need to be afraid — it‘s legit too. Fun fact: notice that Swiss made Breitling replica forgot to align the bezel for the official catalog shoot. Meaningless, but the kind of oddity you don’t see very often.

Replica Breitling Watches For Men

Shotgun notes

My example almost certainly has a replacement crown, but interestingly, it doesn’t bug me as much as I would expect it to. It fits the case perfectly and it’s unique in style too. The crown in the catalog seems pretty standard, so it’s easy to change at any time. That “B“ symbol above the Breitling Geneve inscription on the case back and the dial is divine. It would easily make me add a few hundred euros on top just for it. By the way, the pricing is pretty unknown due to the scarcity of the watch. But I guess you should squeeze under a €2,000 budget. Well, that is until the Breitling CEO George Kern wakes up one morning and decides to refresh the reference in the years to come.
