Airplane! Have you got a Breitling?

Breitling iconic watches have been linked with airplanes since 1884. Let’s zoom on this wonderful time-keeper.
128 years on top

From birth, 128 years ago, Breitling watches have specialized in intricate and intriguing chronographs, thus becoming the appointed watchmaker of US and British Air Forces during WWII. Nowadays, in more peaceful times, the Swiss-made Breitlings have become a must in car races and airplanes, where ultra-technical precision is a question of life, death and victory!

THE time recorder!

Since 1952, time-recorder “Navitimer” has been THE watch on each and every airplane pilot’s wrist, and 30 years later, the watchmaker has given a new boost to the chronograph trend. Those time recorders now represent 80% of the entire Breitling production, even found as a masculine accessory on feminine wrists!
