The Navitimer Tribute to Miles Davis commemorates the watch he wore and popularized beyond its aviation roots in the 1960s. As the earliest Navitimer to adopt the high-contrast reverse panda configuration and Breitling’s mid-century “Twin Jet” logo, the 806 Mk5 was among the first to truly distinguish itself from chronographs of the era. When Miles Davis wore it on stage, the Navitimer became a cultural icon.

Limited to just 500 pieces, it is presented on a gradient-brown calfskin leather strap with stainless-steel folding clasp, or a period-inspired stainless-steel air racer bracelet. The COSC-certified manual-wind Caliber B09 is visible through a display caseback. This timepiece takes elements from the model that inspired it: the Twin Jet logo, the vintage-inspired cream-colored Super-LumiNova, the original dimensions, all the way down the manual-wind caliber. It takes what made the 806 Mk5 great, and updates it with contemporary materials, calibers, and specifications
