Bought a Navitimer

[maxlawbr]

Hello fellas,

After months of research and study, finnaly I bought my Navi.

This is my last purchase, I bought this watch here in São Paulo, Brazil. It cost me about 400 dollars, and I think it is a good watch.

I bought from a dealer I know, in a kind of replica mall. The lady told me it is a Swiss ETA, but I think is an Asian copy, she told me the watch keeps good time, and I think she is right, and that the movement is very reliable.

I'm using the watch and like it a lot, I'm planning to buy a gen strap, and if find it a gen dial and correct date wheel.

So, lets go to the photos.

Back of the case, with incorrect messerchmit name (or whatever how it spell):

The buckle:

Closer look of slide rule, this is the most accurate slide rule I ever saw.

Thanks for visiting an viewing my poor photos.

Slide rule is not aligned on the rep (check out 35 position), it should align with red mark on the dial. It's also the case in your piece. Movement is standard Asian 7750 based on you picture (datefont). Well, can't say that you get a good bargain but nonetheless it's a good replica.

Correct, this watch costs 185$ from Trevor. Nice, though

Here in Brazil is getting more difficult to import a watch, so I think it is a good watch.

Another question, I was in a AD and pick up the Breit catalog, and none of them is aligned.

I'll check with my jepsen slide rule if the calc in the watch is correct.

You must have 10, 35 and 60 at correct positions. Not the case in replica. Indeed, at 400USD you can get 2 pcs of this watch from most dealers here on the board. Say customs confiscate it, you still have chance to get another one.

It is aligned.
Check my gen "Old Navitimer":
