1966 Breitling Navitimer 806 - 'White Logo' AOPA
A 1966 Breitling Navitimer reference 806 wristwatch, produced for the AOPA. A black dial with calibrated scales surrounding, used as a base speed/time measurement for pilots to perform in flight calculations. The outer rotating 'slide rule' bezel is used as a logarithmic scale to read the measurements, using the dial as the constant. The dial has 3 subsidiary dials, including a subsidiary seconds to 9 o'clock, a 12 hour chrono counter to 6 o'clock and a 30 minute counter to 3 o'clock. The hours and minutes are marked with extended lume batons, with 12 shown seperately. The dial is signed with the AOPA logo, showing this watch was supplied to a member of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association of America.
The stainless steel case is in excellent condition, showing hardly any signs of wear or damage - quite unusual for a watch of this size from this period. The rotating bezel is notched to the edge, designed for tactility during use. Each lug shows a light champfer to the centre, expanding slightly towards the ends. The watch has original Breitling pushers and winding crown. The snap on case back is marked with 'Stainless Steel, Breitling, 806'. Signed to the inner with the serial number, which dates this watch to 1966. Case reference 806.
The watch is powered by a manual wind 17 jewel Breitling mechanism, signed as the base caliber Venus 178. The mechanism is stamped WOG to the balance, indicating the watch was specified for US import by Breitlings importers/counterparts Wakkmann.
The collaboration between Breitling and the AOPA produced various models over a long partnership, some of which have recently been reissued. This is the second generation model which is different from the original in several aspects, with white subsidiary dials as opposed to black as well as different hour markers. This model is even rarer as it has to matching white AOPA logo as opposed to the gold/gilt versions on the earlier and later models.
Case width (excluding crown) 41 mm
Case height 48mm
Case depth (including glass) 13mm
