![[Question] Breitling Watches](https://alien.top/pictrs/image/2c641857-f46f-4eca-869b-89c3f5a495ea.webp){kind=link}
Why are breitling watches so relatively unpopular? Iam new to watches and the Navitimer is subjectively one of the prettiest watches for me. What are the reasons why i should reconsider a purchase? I have heard that these watches are relatively bad when it comes to holding value. But is the build quality inferior to other watches or what happened that makes them so unpopular?
Thanks

I always loved the Navitimer, but it was kind of big for my wrist. Now that there’s a 41mm I need to start saving up. What a gorgeous watch.
Thanks!
Navitimer plays down a mm or so IMO, the way the dial sits vs. lugs is sort of like an optical illusion. This is a 43 mm on my wrist (7.75") for reference. I probably could have gone with a 46, but I think this fits perfect. So long as lugs aren’t slipping off the end (something I see too much on reddit).
It’s funny, because my wrist is 7.5" and my daily driver is an Omega GSotM at 44.25mm, but I tried on a 43mm Navitimer a couple of months ago and it looked waaaay too big for me.
Looks just right on your wrist, though.
