    The pilot’s chronograph for the adventurous – including a living piece of history. On 21 March 1999, Bertrand Piccard and Brian Jones made the first non-stop circumnavigation of the earth in a balloon.

    Each watch in the special edition contains a living piece of history: a fragment of the original balloon, visible through the open case back.

    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.
