Purchased new from a Canadian AD. The watch is in like new condition with Breitling oem film still attached to case side, lugs, and caseback. It comes with original unworn OEM Breitling Blue Alligator Strap with unworn Breitling deployant clasp and all Breitling OEM accoutrements, boxes, and papers.
PLUS: it's a Canadian Watch bought new from the Birks Breitling Boutique in Ottawa with all the Canadian paperwork which helps when you travel because you can point the customs officer to the fact that it was bought in Canada on the warranty card.
Anecdote: I met the head watchmaker from the Breitling Boutique and he was wearing this exact Aurora Blue Cosmonaute. He indicated that he's had quite a few offers because it's discontinued and collectable:
Price: $7000 obo via Interac EMT. Longtime collector with many references.

Anecdote: I met the head watchmaker from the Breitling Boutique and he was wearing this exact Aurora Blue Cosmonaute. He indicated that he's had quite a few offers because it's discontinued and collectable:
- has the "gold wings" logo which is discontinued (the Breitling watchmaker said many collectors come in and lament the missing wings now that all new watches only come with the Breitling "B"
- special edition, now no longer in the Breitling catalogue, and out of production
- is both a true Navitimer and a Cosmonaute with real historical Space provenance given astronaut Scott Carpenter asked Breitling to make it specifically for him with the manual wind movement and orbited the Earth three times aboard the Aurora 7 wearing one
- Canadian Breitling Boutique purchased and completely brand new with stickers attached
- comes with the upgraded Breitling Blue Alligator Strap and Breitling deployant clasp both unworn
