The famous Formula 1 Racing Driver, Jim Clark, wore both the now very sought after and rare Enicar Sherpa Graph but was also seen on many occasions wearing a Breitling Navitimer Ref. 806 while driving his Formula 1 racing car. This is a magnificent, beautiful, big example in superb original condition, one of the very best we have seen and with a very smart and expensive new Breitling real Crocodile skin strap and buckle. It is a very impressive watch on the wrist. It is a Generation IV Navitimer 806 dated by its Breitling Serial number, 1342314, to 1970. This is the model with the desirable smaller white sub-dials and has its original faded lume. The watch is running perfectly and all the case edges are sharp and original and unpolished. Many more high resolution photographs are available upon request.
