Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 -
Blue Dial (Ref. AB0138)1
$6995.00$6395.00
While the red gold Navitimer we just viewed is a statement of luxury, this stainless steel version with a Blue dial is the contemporary "daily driver" of the collection. It features the 2022 design updates, most notably the return of the AOPA wings logo at 12 o'clock and a more refined, flatter slide rule that gives the watch a sleeker profile despite its 43mm size.2
This pre-owned model from 2023 is in Excellent condition and includes its original Box and Papers.3

Why This Model Stands Out
The "Perfect" Blue: Breitling’s blue dial is finished with a sunray effect, meaning it catches light in a radial pattern that shifts from a bright cerulean to a deep midnight blue.
Modern Proportions: The 43mm case is often considered the "Goldilocks" size for the Navitimer—not as dainty as the 41mm, but more wearable than the oversized 46mm.4
The Movement View: Unlike many vintage Navitimers, this modern reference features a sapphire crystal caseback, allowing you to see the column-wheel B01 movement in action.5
