It is thought the dial of this watch has a very slight Chocolate Brown hue,
though it is difficult to show in the photos.
This is a rare example of an early Navitimer. An iconic watch by Breitling that represents a legend of watch making history, especially in the 60th Anniversary year of the Cosmonaute.
