Breitling’s iconic pilot’s chronograph – for the journey. In 1952, Willy Breitling developed a wrist-worn chronograph with a circular slide rule that would allow pilots to perform all necessary flight calculations. Two years later, the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) announced the design as its official timepiece. The “navigation timer” – or Navitimer – was born. The AOPA was (and remains) the largest pilots’ club in the world, counting nearly every US aviator among its ranks. As the defacto pilot’s watch throughout the glory days of civil aviation, the Navitimer was worn by airline captains and aircraft enthusiasts. It even made its way into space on the wrist of astronaut Scott Carpenter in 1962. And it wasn’t only pilots drawn to the watch’s irrepressible aesthetic. Celebrities of the day such as Miles Davis and Serge Gainsbourg were devotees, proving that the Navitimer had style as well as function. There have been many iterations of Breitling’s icon since its debut 70 years ago, but this new Navitimer captures its most classic features, while enhancing them with modern refinements. A flattened slide rule and a domed crystal create the illusion of a sleeker profile. Alternating polished and brushed metal elements give a lustrous, yet understated finish.
This collaboration between SWISS and Breitling retains the signature design details of the Navitimer, while featuring a silver and anthracite dial with Bordeaux accent, a nod to the aircraft cabin colorway. Enhanced with 46 mm diameter steel case and a black alligator leather strap, the co-branded timepiece expresses a distinct style and subtle flair. The open-caseback view provides a window on the COSC-certified Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01. The crystal is adorned with a unique turbine printing, linking the watch to the story of civil aviation. Limited to 350 pieces, this piece will be available on selected flights and upon pre-order on any SWISS long-haul flight.
