Why We Love It

Originally released in 1954, the Breitling Navitimer has been in production longer than any other sporting chronograph. Complex yet elegant - you're bound to get lost in the dial...

...which is probably not a good thing if you're a pilot using it to navigate while flying, but we digress...

Over the decades, the Navitimer has seen countless variations that offer a wide range of design features, materials, complications and casing materials.

This particular example, a Reference A24322, features a 46mm stainless steel case with a luminous black dial, a matching handset, a chronograph complication, and of course, the ubiquitous slide-rule calculation bezel. Additionally, this World variation adds a 24hr GMT hand for some increased functionality. And we must say, it suits the Navitimer very well!

In fantastic condition throughout and fitted to an Breitling signed rubber strap, this piece offers tremendous functionality for those who can actually figure out how to use it!

Let us know if you do!

The Breitling Story

Breitling was founded in 1892, and while still around today, the company is no longer in the hands of the Breitling family.

The late 1970s was a turbulent time for the Swiss watch industry, and many storied houses were swept away by the Quartz Crisis. By 1978, Breitling was in trouble due to the illness of its leader, Willy Breitling, and the steep decline in sales that had cut through the entire industry. Unable to keep operations going, the Breitling company was liquidated, and parts, toolings and naming rights were sold off. One of the best aviation watch companies was no more, but they left behind a large range of incredible watches.

Breitling has been surprisingly slow to catch fire with vintage collectors, especially since the history of the brand and their ties to aviation are unimpeachable. Sure, many of their watches have polarizing designs and complicated dial aesthetics (hell, we don't know how to use the slide rule feature on the Navitimer 806 any better than you do), but their cleaner designs embody the best of 1960s and 1970s chronograph design and shouldn’t be overlooked.

If we had our druthers, Breitling would be one of the top dogs in the world of vintage watches, and given a strong new direction for the company today, we’re confident that in time, they will be.
