The Breitling Navitimer isn’t just a chronograph — it’s a genuine flight instrument. First introduced in 1952, it became a go-to tool for aviators thanks to its unique slide rule bezel, which allowed pilots to make flight calculations midair.
This wasn’t a fashion piece — it was a mission essential.
