The Breitling Navitimer, an iconic pilot's chronograph, traces its roots to 1952 when Willy Breitling crafted a wristwatch with a circular slide rule for aviation calculations. Adopted as the official timepiece by the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) in 1954, it became a symbol of the golden era of civil aviation. Worn by airline captains and celebrities like Miles Davis, the Navitimer even accompanied astronaut Scott Carpenter into space in 1962. In its latest iteration, the watch maintains its classic charm while embracing modern updates.
The design showcases a flattened slide rule and a domed crystal, imparting a streamlined profile. Meticulous detailing with alternating polished and brushed metal elements gives the watch an elegant yet understated finish. The dial introduces new color options in shades of blue, green, and copper, adding a contemporary touch. Notably, the AOPA wings return to their original position at 12 o'clock, evoking nostalgia.
The heart of the Navitimer is the Breitling 01 self-winding mechanical movement, with a power reserve of approximately 70 hours. The chronograph features 1/4th second accuracy, measuring intervals of 30 minutes and 12 hours. Crafted in 18k red gold, the case is water-resistant to 30m, with a bidirectional slide rule bezel and a cambered sapphire crystal. The alligator leather strap in brown, coupled with an 18k red gold folding clasp, completes this masterpiece, reaffirming the Navitimer's status as Breitling's most iconic timepiece, blending aviation heritage with contemporary style.
