Breitling’s iconic pilot’s chronograph – built for your journey. In 1952, Willy Breitling developed a wrist-worn chronograph with a circular flight slide to allow pilots to calculate all key flight data. Two years later, aircraft owners and the World Pilots Association (AOPA) declared the watch its official timepiece. The “navigation timer” – the Navitimer – was born.
AOPA was (and still is) the largest pilot club in the world, with nearly all American pilots as members. Throughout the glory days of civil aviation, the Navitimer, as the de facto pilot’s watch, was worn by airline captains and aircraft enthusiasts. In 1962, astronaut Scott Carpenter even wore this watch into space. It’s not just pilots who are attracted by the irrepressible beauty of this watch. Celebrities at the time, such as Miles Davis and Serge Gainsbourg, were loyal fans of the Navitimer.
The flat circular flight slide rule and hemispherical crystal glass create a more stylish silhouette. Alternating polished and brushed metal elements create a striking yet understated look. Most notably, new dial colors – blue, green, and copper – define the new dial styles.
The best product on the internet right now! If Breitling could only choose one watch, I would choose this 43mm gold chronograph with a transparent back without hesitation! The nearly perfect dial layout is the dream product of every Breitling fan!
