One of the most popular models of the brand is the Breitling Navitimer. With its name coming from the combination of the words "navigation" and "timer", this watch is always dubbed as a "mini-computer for pilots". With that said, it is one of the most essential models in the history of pilot watches. In fact, it is still being used today by aviators around the globe for its integrated flight computer. That includes air forces that still use this as equipment for their pilots.
Breitling released the Navitimer in 1952 as an upgrade to the Breitling Chronomat. Like its predecessor, the Navitimer allows the wearer to perform mathematical computations in an instant. It had the same chronograph and slide rule bezel that you can see from the 1940's version of the Chronomat. The difference is that it is easier to calculate equations using the newer model.
One of the reasons why this watch is important to the brand is that it introduced Breitling's first in-house movement. The calibre features a power reserve of up to 70 hours. Furthermore, its chronograph function can time periods of up to 12 hours. Today, Navitimer, including the Navitimer 1 and Navitimer 8 models, can be had for as low as $4,230 USD and as high as $5,549 USD for more complicated features.
With this watch, Breitling cemented its place in aviation history. They became the official supplier of board instruments for various aircraft companies like Boeing. The Breitling Navitimer remains an icon to this day.
Before the Navitimer, there was the Breitling Chronomat, which was the inspiration for the model. In fact, the Navitimer is often dubbed as an improved version of this model. Its story begins in 1940 when Breitling wanted to obtain a patent for a circular slide rule bezel. These bezels will be used to help their watches calculate mathematical equations. A year later, the watchmakers from Breitling were able to obtain a patent from the Swiss government and as a result, they offered the first Breitling Chronomat for sale.
The first version of the Breitling Chronomat had a Venus 175 calibre movement. It was manually wound and had 17 jewels. Furthermore, customers had the choice between a stainless steel and an 18k rose gold version. With the watch's functionality and good looks, it's no wonder why it instantly became a bestseller.
Through the years, the Chronomat not only inspired the Navitimer but also a few other Breitling men's watches. As examples, the Breitling Chronomat Vitesse, Breitling Avenger, and Breitling Galactic 32 share a few similarities with the vintage Breitling Chronomat watches.
