Navitimer Automatic 41

How it wears

Wears smaller than its 41 mm case suggests

Breitling Navitimer Automatic 41 measures 46.8 mm lug-to-lug on a 41 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.14 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 54% of the 7,421 watches in this database and shorter than 77% of the 298 Breitling watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 52 mm (2.05 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 63 mm (2.48 in) it starts to look compact. Below 46.8 mm (1.84 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
