Glashütte Navigator
I have been lucky to acquire this beauty but it did not have any papers. Am I right in thinking that it is from the late 1990s? Would someone have its reference number? And any idea as to how many were produced in 18K? This appears to be N° 3, a small run I should guess. Well, any info about this watch would be most welcome, thanks!

. . . with a specified case of 38.3 mm, as opposed to the current 44 mm versions. You're essentially correct in that the current versions were originally produced with solid casebacks, but I think the year G O started offering display backs was 2008. Cord...
Thanks!
Thank you very much for the info. I confirm that its size is 38mm which fits better on my wrist than the current 44mm. I have other chunky watches but I must admit that I am growing tired of them (as far as I am concerned the ideal size for a watch is bet...
Our Man in Glashütte came to the rescue . . .
. . . with an answer to your question. There is a difference between the two reference numbers that wasn't discernable from the photos I had at hand, but is apparent by comparing these two images: Yours is the one on top, reference #39-11-07-06-04, and is...
Thank you very much indeed...
Art and René for bringing those details to our attention. The bezel is definetely different but so seems to be the crown: it looks flater and perhaps wider on my version. Best wishes, K.
