I have the predecessor the Navitimer Olympus which is broadly the same but with a better looking dial (IMO) found it to be a good watch but looses time at about 3-4 mins a day, this could be fixed by a service but I could not bear to be without it.

I brought a Navitimer Montbrillant earlier this year, it has a black leather strap with white stiching, I love it to bits. Mine has the 38mm diameter face so it does not looks as large as the normal Navitimers with their whopping 41mm (or is it 41.5mm) faces. I would say go for it, my poor old Tag 2000 series is now only getting occasional usage.

Where did you buy it, and for (roughly) how much? Doesn't sound like the sort of thing which would happen to a real Breitling, if you get my meaning.
