Interesting, not sure whay you've got there C. Colour looks good and spelling correct but positioning of cities on the caseback is out. On the gen London should be at 12 o clock above the wings with the model number at 6 o clock. My 2 BPs and pics on TDs I've looked at also have this but yours doesn't not that its that big a deal just trying to identify it.
Looks a nice piece though hows the DW is it flush?

You're killing me! You basically have an unknown version of the watch I want, but didn't get it from a TD.. Wait it came with a manual?

I think what you have here is probably a hybrid Crabber or a slightly updated JF version. The dial looks JF and also the DW where the numbers are too wide apart and font is wrong (eg the number 1 should be like this with a slope down and the top and yours is flat. However your bezel lines up quite nicely whereas JF is out. Go to Ryans site Intime and look at the Navi gmt blue dial and check out alignment of 25. Also see mis spelling on caseback which yours doesnt have. So apart from DW rest is pretty nice and enjoy. Penguin get the black or buy both and see what you think, these alqays go fast m2m if you want to move it. Now must get back to lieing in the sun in the south of france

You've got some good eyes! The dw font would kind of ruin it for me. I'll probably go for the BP black. Thanks!

@andyr
I wanted to ask your opinion on a strap for the navi
I want the option to wear black leather IAT SS
I obviously won't go w/ a rep leather strap

The gen w/ deployant is over 500USD, so thats out (Too expensive)
The gen w/ tang is 239USD (cheapest I could find online)
And Bob with deployant is under 70usd (seems to be the best bang for buck option)

What did you go with and which do you recommend above or can you recommend anything else?

I went with a strap from Panatime and put it on a rep deployant. There are a few different rep deployant clasps and i had a couple but when i ordered my BP Navi A23322 from Toro i ordered an extra blue strap on deployant which you can see in the pic below and this has the nicest deployant as its well centred and well defined. The strap is also pretty good too. Panatime have a section dedicated to 24 mm Breitling deployant straps and have some nice new additions. The straps are mainly from RIOS who make very good quality straps even at the bottom end of the price scale. Bob straps are good too nit i lean towards Panatime for Breitling.
