The icons of watchmaking and aeronautics also know how to reinvent themselves. Otherwise, ask the mythicalBreitling Navitimer 01 Limited Edition, a watch that returns to the market in a limited edition of 1,000 automatic examples and a power reserve of more than 70 hours.
Launched in 1952, the Navitimer has established itself as a cult object among aeronautics enthusiasts, as well as the oldest of all mechanical chronographs manufactured in the world. But in addition to the flagship model, with a black dial and silver counters, it also knows how to adopt other faces with great character.
Worse, as we said, its dark gray dial with a brushed soleil finish makes the black counters now subtly stand out. An original, technical and masculine style, enhanced with indications obtained according to a special method called par épargne on a pure silver background.
For its part, the bottom of the box of theBreitling Navitimer 01 Limited Editionreveals another specialty of the brand that explains its success with aviators: its know-how in the field of mechanical chronographs. And this model houses a Breitling 01 manufacture caliber, a high-performance motor fully developed and manufactured in the firm's workshops, and equipped with a chronometer certificate from the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Control).
As a clasp, this beautiful watch is available with a steel, leather or crocodile skin bracelet in various colors. A legendary trajectory that continues to perpetuate itself over time.
