How good of a rep is the navitimer world?

It's in the native subdial configuration (running seconds at 9), same as gen since the gen uses a 7750 with GMT module. Should be reliable and dependable.

Cool. This is my next one then.

OK last question for this one... Since this is a chrono... does it have the correct hand in the correct position? If I am correct it is more reliable if the second hand is at the 9PM position right?
Make sure you get the BP version and no JF. You can tell the difference by going to the sticky at the top of the forum called REP NAVITIMER GUIDE.

@andyr Do you think the stock AR is good? I know Breitling crystals are one of the clearest crystals with a distinct color.

Also, is the white dial not recommended because of the yellowish crystal hue? Or not close to Gen white?

AR is good enough on stock crystal, but some do suffer from a yellowish tinge which obviously shows up most on the white/silver dial which is a shame as that dial is really good and very accurate.

I assume a gen crystal will fit?

Thanks, Andyr. Think a custom 2AR would fix that? Or the yellowish tinge is inherent to the crystal?

No this isn't a straight forward swap. My mate Dave bought my white BP and has written a great review on the crystal options as he wanted to get rid of the yellow tinge. Its over on RG in the Breitling forum and about 15 posts down under the name of DaveT.

Ahhh. Wait a minute. Is the reason why the blue dials have a greenish tint because the crystal is yellow and yellow and blue makes green?

Good thinking, but no the greenish tint is just that the colour of the dial itself is wrong.

I don't have it on a black croc strap but yeah. Got a mini service done on it but I think I'll swap it out for a gen valjoux 7753 later. Only because I love this rep.
