Housed in a 38mm case that blends stainless steel with 18K rose gold, the Navitimer Automatic 38 presents a silver dial adorned with applied rose gold-tone index hour markers featuring luminous tips. Rose gold-tone hands with luminous fill sweep across a finely printed minutes and seconds track, while a date window sits at the 6 o'clock position. A cambered sapphire crystal, glare-proofed on both sides, protects the display above a solid case back.
The defining feature is the beaded 18K red gold bidirectional slide-rule bezel, a hallmark of the Navitimer lineage. The non-screw-locked crown with two gaskets provides water resistance to 30m/99ft. Power comes from an automatic movement — Breitling caliber 17 — housing 25 jewels and offering approximately 38 hours of power reserve.
The watch is worn on a brown alligator leather strap with white stitching, secured by a tang buckle clasp. It is presented complete with the original Breitling watch box and Breitling papers, and carries a Breitling warranty.
