"Received my Nav-B LE #81/200 in three days, exactly as promised. The presentation box was even richer looking than on the Debaufre website. Once inside, I found my Nav-B was ticking away waiting for me.
That the watch was large was no surprise, but the wrist presence and quality that the Nav-B has is still amazing to me. Friends have commented on the size, beauty and unique "naked" elegance of the watch face. What small misgivings I initially had about the large crown digging into my hand proved groundless as the watch is very comfortable to wear all day.
Since the "B" arrived I have been wearing it exclusively and at every opportunity I've had to check it, the Nav-B has been within 10/15 seconds of the official "time.gov" reading. I suppose that this accuracy surprises no one familiar with the ETA 2824-2 but it was nevertheless very gratifying to me, a novice to this movement.
For some time I had planned on ordering a Nav-B Classic Unitas and I may still some time soon but the LE was just too unique a watch to pass up. My hope is that everyone else who has ordered this extraordinary piece is as pleased with their purchase as I continue to be.
Congratulations to Jon D. and everyone at Debaufre on a real winner and a personal thanks from me for completely exceeding my expectations." Tim Feeney
