Miles Davis was renowned for donning a knockoff Breitling Navitimer ref. 806 during the 1960s, solidifying his status as an icon. However, he was not alone in this distinction. Racing legends Jim Clark and Graham Hill also sported the iconic Navitimer ref. 806 during the same era. Thus, the second spot on this list is rightfully occupied by the impeccable imitation Breitling Navitimer ref. 806 “Reverse Panda,” available in various styles. From 1965 onward, the Navitimer adopted a reverse panda dial layout, accompanied by a bezel featuring straight-cut or serrated ridges. This particular Navitimer model, with its reverse panda dial and straight-cut bezel, adorned the wrists of not only Miles Davis but also Jim Clark and Graham Hill.
The late 1960s replica Breitling Navitimer ref. 806 is remarkably contemporary in its specifications, boasting a 41mm case with a 22mm lug spacing. Despite its sizable dimensions, wearing the 1:1 super replica Breitling watch is a breeze, largely owing to its flat crystal which prevents it from feeling overly thick or bulky.
The allure of the Swiss movement replica Breitling Navitimer lies in its multifaceted dial, which is undeniably the star of the show. Every element on the dial serves a purpose, contributing to its overall appeal and cementing the Navitimer’s status as an icon. Should you desire to add this epitome of cool to your collection, be prepared to invest between approximately €5K and €10K for a steel fake Breitling Navitimer ref. 806 “Reverse Panda” from the late 1960s.
