What is Breitling known about?
Breitling – Swiss precision watches for aviation and adventure
Breitling was founded in 1884 by Léon Breitling in Saint-Imier, Switzerland, with the aim of creating precision instruments for professional and scientific purposes. The brand quickly became the first choice for pilots and aviation professionals due to its precise chronographs and navigation instruments. In 1936, Breitling was officially appointed as the supplier to the Royal Air Force, a partnership that solidified the brand's reputation as the watch brand for aviation.
The most iconic model from Breitling is undoubtedly the Navitimer, introduced in 1952. The Navitimer is equipped with a flight computer that allows pilots to calculate fuel consumption, flight speed, and distances. Other legendary models include the Superocean for divers, the Avenger for military professionals, and the Chronomat, a versatile chronograph that excels outside the cockpit as well. Each Breitling watch is certified as a COSC chronometer.
Today, Breitling positions itself as the watch for adventurers, pilots, divers, and free spirits who value authenticity above all. The brand has recently undergone a strong transformation under CEO Georges Kern, with a renewed identity and sustainability initiatives.
