    Breitling’s icon – for travel. The Navitimer is one of the most iconic watches ever made. It is on collectors’ lists as one of the greatest watches of all time. What began in 1952 as an instrument for pilots has now had a deep meaning for everyone who this timepiece accompanies on their personal journey.

    The icon now comes in 36 and 32 mm sizes for women and men who love the look and feel of a watch with a smaller diameter. While the 36mm Navitimer features the beaded bezel and iconic circular slide rule that give the Navitimer its distinctive look, the impressive 32mm variant forgoes the slide rule in favor of a simpler dial design tailored to the slim diameter.

    Breitling’s storied association with chronographs and aeronautics dates back to 1884, when Léon Breitling laid the foundation for a company that would remain in his family for nearly a century.

    In 1923, a patented pocket watch with two chronograph pushers caused a sensation. The one pusher in the 2 o’clock position was used for starting and stopping, while the other, integrated into the crown, reset the chronograph mechanism. For the first time, it was possible for the stopwatch to measure multiple times in sequence.

    Navigation and timer - or simply Navitimer

    In 1952, Willy Breitling developed a chronograph with a circular slide rule that pilots could use to make all the necessary flight calculations. Two years later, the American Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), the largest pilots' club in the world, appointed his design as its official timepiece.

    At Breitling, we believe in the power of a team, the strength of a group, and the mutual identification of a common target, which ultimately leads to success.
