Navitimer Pan Am

Tried this on today at the Breitling event for Wiscon19. What a cool, funky watch.

I would have a tough time wearing that. It’s just over the top for my taste. To be honest, most of the Navi 1s are just to much for my taste.

I love it. People don't love it because of the price point. If that watch were $40,000, everyone would say it's the most magnificent watch they've ever seen.

I don't quite understand the story behind it, same as the Navitimer TWA and Swiss Air models.

What a cool Navitimer. I saw this on Saturday as well. Could become my official 4th of July watch. Love the red, white and blue.

The shame in this reply is that the blro is not the panam gmt.. it's a beautiful watch, but the blro is a different watch than the gmt Rolex made for panam

Never tried to say it was 6542, but it is the updated version of the original, which was made by Rolex in collaboration with Pan Am. Breitling had no such collaboration.

Neither watch has anything to do with pan am. Other than the bs manufacturers are feeding

The 6542 does have something to do with panam.

That's the only panam gmt
