Why it's interesting
The circular slide rule made the 1952 Navitimer a flight computer for the wrist; today it's mostly a gloriously dense piece of graphic design. The 41 mm case pulls the proportions back towards the originals, and the black-and-silver dial is the one to picture when someone says 'Navitimer'.

Took me a while to warm to the colour. Now it's the one I reach for.
