Navitimer Automatic 36

How it wears

Wears true to its 36 mm case size

Breitling Navitimer Automatic 36 measures 41.7 mm lug-to-lug on a 36 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.16 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 88% of the 7,421 watches in this database and shorter than 94% of the 298 Breitling watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 47 mm (1.85 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 56 mm (2.20 in) it starts to look compact. Below 41.7 mm (1.64 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
