Breitling Watches Blog

Breitling announced their new stop watch today, just for Baselworld 2009. With called Chronomat B01, I must say that this must be Breitling of the nicest glance that I saw up to now. It is a design of their popular model of Chronomat, and it has some very attractive devices.

The first thing which change is mounting, it was reorganized and comprises now numbers engraved with the place right of the lines. The face slightly different, looking at a little more is as well refined then the basic model of Chronomat. The greatest change however, is something which you will see only if you look by the mineral crystal back, and it is the new movement. Breitling decided to produce the movement for Chronomat B01 internally, and it shows. I will admit that I am a ventilator of the mechanical movements to being with, but this new Breitling is something to see. I hope that they continue this and make more and more their watches with this movement.

Available in the typical line of case of Breitling, colors, and choice of band, it has no word there on the price currently. Seek this with your retailer preferred in the near future.

By celebrating its 125th birthday, Breitling reaffirms its passion for stop watches more powerful than ever, by the recall of the people the main role the mark played by developing this type of instrument.

But the history of Breitling is also narrowly interlaced with that of aviation, thanks to the instruments of cockpit and the pilot of the ’stop watches of S which made the company with with official supplier with the aviation of the world .Most famous of these instruments for professionals is undoubtedly the legendary stop watch of Navitimer, with its circular slide rule designed to calculate all airborne calculations of navigation.

Navitimer the 125e Anniversaire is a strongly distinctive version of this worship-object, particularly designed by Breitling to mark the company the ‘centuries quarters of S five.This limited edition of 2009 pieces is distinguished by an esthetics in particular minimized and dynamic.The case out of comprising steel alternating satin-swept surfaces and polised teamed with a new very original bracelet called Air Racer – a wristband perforated riged which pays homage to an icon of modern design of the Sixties.Navitimer the 125e Anniversaire is equipped with an exclusive movement, gauge 26 of Breitling.These 38 with automatic reassembly jewel the stop watch, stop watch-certified by the COSC, is distinguishedd by its tolalizer 60 minute, placed at the center of dial for optimal legibility.The watch is also available in a red gold version, in the same way is equipped with the bracelet of runner of air.

In 1961 the 24 Navitimer hours was presented. It had the model reference number usual 806 Navitimer and as the 12 hours the version had the owners of planes and pilot the logo of wings of association (AOPA) on the dial.

Navitimer 24 hours, reference model 806

Independently of the clutch of 2$4$ hours, the movement was same gauge 178 of Come as in the 12 Navitimer hours. And of logo of star of Come 178 can be seen under the wheel of balance.

In June 1961 the name Cosmonaute were recorded by Breitling with the Swiss office of the intellectual property and one it believes that the manufacture of the Cosmonaut, the reference model 809, started during this year. However the name Cosmonaute did not always appear on the dial.

When Breitling released its stopwatch avenger out of titanium in 1999, the larger is a better mentality just started to take root. At 44 millimetres, the stopwatch avenger put at far some customers at the beginning. However, it was not a long time before the men would put it above, feel its weight (lighter of 30% that steel), and are gained more. After eight years, Breitling decided to withdraw the titanic model in favour of a steel version of 45 millimetres called the Skyland avenger.

Breitling noted that several of its loyal supporters are fanatic not only of the size but weight. Simu

ltaneous with the release of the new watch is a steel version of black of limited edition which already received reviews of praise by those which saw the prototypes while in Basle, and by these some enough lucky to have seen one in a window of store.
One of the seizing devices of the watch is the white numbers of stencil key set being on the dial just below the oversize white hands. Time has read-with far is crunching and instantaneous. To be initially a manufacturer of the stop watches, Breitling equipped the avenger Skyland Blacksteel with gauge 13 of Breitling, a.k.a.: ValJoux 7750, one of most qualified plough horses of industry. To make the subdials more perceptible, Breitling chose the red hands for minute 30,adding machines of the 60 second continuous-current fields and 12 hours, the 60 seconds end of the stop watch relative.Sufficient quantities of good legibility of Superb-LumiNova guarantee the night.

Breitling chose not to offer a bracelet for this model, but in the place assembled the head on rubber belt of the plunger of Breitling the pro – the only free belt to prick of white of the signature of Breitling (that this author thinks would look at rather pointed with the white numbers – or, still improve, a black belt with1.000 feet of resistance to water makes sure that a plunger can comfortably take this model with any reasonable depth.

To finish, as with all Breitlings, a thick sapphire crystal is coated on the two sides with an anti-r3flchissant coating, making the dial very easy to read, any matter the conditions of lighting.The avenger Skyland Blacksteel on rubber is sure to be a hot piece since the base of ventilator is large, and the piece is limited to 2.000 world pieces.

Go back the homage to has with a pioneer, a homage to one era. Breitling, the company which invented the first movement with automatic reassembly of stop watch in 1969, now restores one of the models most celebrated in its history – and probably in the history of the Swiss clock industry.

Version 2008 of the Stopwatch–Matic 49 legendary asserts the lines angular and tended which are inspired by the generous size of the original and the years ‘60-years ‘70 look at. A traditional model of vintage with contemporary air, on the ground, the sea and in the skies.

Breitling Men’s Chronomat Evolution 756 Chronograph COSC Automatic Watch

Towards end of the year 50, the establishment of its control of the skies, Breitling placed at to conquer the maritime depths far while launching Superocean, the watch of a professional plunger which also gained a following among the first enthusiasts of diving of leisures. Since, the successive generations of the models of Superocean continued to excel on a technical level, asserting resistance to water with the depths of 500, 1500 and even of 2000 meters. A homage rougeoyant to the original model, line of Superocean the Heritage reflects its spirit and itsaesthetics, as in the new version of Stop watch.

Just as the business 50 years ago, its dial carries the signature of Breitling supplemented by the stylized letter gold B of 18 carats. The model also comprises another distinctive detail: the hour is consequently shown luminescent triangular tilted hand which already allowed clearly read-with far same in the darkness great depths. The choice of the bands of wrist is also exclusive – starting with the traditional woven steel bracelet of ocean, which reflects the initial version which gave to the watch its not very common visual aspect. Much more the resolutely sporting rubber belt of runner of ocean comes in three colors matching those from the dial and mounting: black, blue and bronze. The original design of Superocean Hritage Stop watch is matched only by the quality of its executions.

Its case out of imposing steel, measuring 46 millimetres in diameter and resistant to water with 200 meters (660 feet 20 bars), cabin gauge 13, a movement with vigorous utmost precision of Breitling officially stop watch-certified by the COSC – just as are indeed all the movements of Breitling.

COSC certified The only successful

Achievements not only in the field of aviation. In 1988, when Marcel Breitling Expo on display in the “Emergency” models of watches, he immediately caused a sensation. The waterproof tables equipped with a micro-transmitter, can be -20 ? -100 ? temperature range to the frequency of 121.5 issued 2 times per minute, pulse signal, firing range of 160 kilometers, continuous working time up to 20 — 28 days. The table can be used for aviation, sea diving, mountain climbing, adventure and other emergency help.

In 1995, should be NATO’s request, Breitling launched a specialized aviation for professional people have to survive the multi-function Chronograph function – “Emergency”. This miniature transmitter with built-in table may be on the 121.5 frequency in the 48 hours of continuous firing distress signals.

In 1999 by the Breitling professional appraisal company, a producer-flight cabin manufacture, and directly involved in the whole process of flight preparation “BREITLING ORBITER 3″ hot air balloon to complete the world’s first one-week non-stop around the earth.

Breitling has also developed the world’s only water depth of 1000 meters in a time function can still operate “CHRONO AVENGER M1″ professional divers watch. The table installed patented magnetic button device, with screws crown and automatic locking valve door, even if wearing gloves can be manipulated flexibly.

All depends on the Breitling for technical accuracy devotion. Super quartz movement (SUPERQUARTZ ™) is the representative of its dedication.

In 2001, Breitling has developed the “SUPERQUARTZTM”, than the general standard of accuracy quartz movement in excess of 10 times a year the error rate of less than 15 seconds. This is a can with the temperature and automatically adjust the movement to run highly sophisticated device than the standard quartz movement accurate more than tenfold.

In 2002, Breitling closure in the (LA CHAUX-DE-FONDS) the establishment of an ultra-modern plant “BREITLING CHRONOMETRIE”, focus on the development and production of mechanical movements. Established for the purpose of the laboratory is equipped with timer and wrist devices are very high-performance motor and in line with 100% precision when the entire production of the stringent requirements. It is said that the laboratory room pressure control and using the most advanced air purification system, a laboratory environment.

To ensure reliable quality, the mechanical movement Breitling and electronic quartz movement are handed over to the official Swiss clock precision Testing Center (COSC) to carry out stringent tests. COSC is an independent, neutral body, they have to for each movement have carried out a long 15 days and nights of tests, including five kinds of locations and three kinds of different temperatures extremely rigorous testing. In order to obtain precision clock center certification, mechanical movement of each day’s “error rate” must be less than -4 / +6 seconds, that is, to reach 99.99% accuracy.

According to Breitling said that because of its strict operation flow, can be fully adopted by the COSC testing. Breitling is the only electronic quartz movement can meet the existing “Swiss COSC certified (COSC)” of the testing requirements of enterprises. A figure we can see that their technology skills – Statistics show that Switzerland’s annual production of COSC certified watch was only 5%.

It is worth mentioning that in 2002, and the famous Breitling Bentley Motors brands together. Cooperation at the beginning, Breitling involved in the latest 2002 model Bentley Continental GT instrumentation system design, and Breitling clock installed on the car dashboard. This cooperation, to the new Breitling inspiration.

Bollywood blockbuster “Broken Sword” (Broken Arrow) and the “face” (Face / Off) • the starring John Travolta (John Travolta, John Travolta also translate special) life is also an excellent pilot .

The United States in 1954 was born in New Jersey, the son of drama teacher, has accumulated over 5000 hours of flight, and eight different flight models qualified, including the Boeing 747-400 jumbo jet Jumbo Jet. “I like to fly at least once a day.” He said.
As early as the 1970s, he was to enjoy a global reputation of the star, and had boarded the cover of Time magazine. Starring him “Weekend Fever” and “Grease” and even set off a worldwide hot disco dance. Clearly, Breitling (BREITLING) to select the image of him as a spokesperson, more attention is to walk through clouds of him dancing.

Sustained 70 years of flying dream

Breitling is a well-known Swiss watch manufacturers. It was founded in 1884 manufacturers of watches, one of my dreams is the hope that their products can be like John Travolta • Like flying.

To this end, they own a series of products named “Navitimer” (the other three series are “Chronoliner”, “Nightlight”, “Professional”). In 2006 they introduced new products is the “Airwolf”.

This is a multi-function electronic timer watch. This table has a “new type of ergonomic stopwatch concave button-type” and “cold light a night vision device,” and used by the Swiss COSC certified quartz Super Machine (SuperQuartzTM), to “ensure the stability of durable watch reliable and accurate. ”

Earliest Breitling watches for aviation, completed in 1941. September 30 that year, they complete the “revolving sliding scale” of the design and after the trial has made Switzerland the first patent No. 217,012. The main reason for the grant of patents is the watch allows the pilot to carry out both simple multiplication and division operations, public English translation, can be calculated off and landing aircraft speed and time.

11 years later, in 1952, the company before formally launching the famous “Navitimer” table. The table in addition to time, but also equipped with “Air computers” feature, check the flight plan calculation speed, and to calculate the fuel consumption. To the early 1960s, they have already been satisfied in the ultra-sound under the conditions of the standard rate of the indicators.

The table has a lot of legend. During World War II, many second-generation fighter aircraft are equipped with the timer for their manufacture. In addition, Breitling has brought together the most famous fighter 6. It is said that May 24, 1962, the table also with the American astronaut Scott Carpenter • conducted a second orbital flight around the world.

Breitling in the aviation industry was a great success. This success seems to me that some accidental access to today. 1884 Lyon • Breitling (Louis Breitling) at the beginning of the creation of companies, mainly the production of pocket watches, but also for the military production with seconds and luminous watches. In 1936, when the old Breitling master of “Spirit of St. Louis” (Spirit of St Louis) over the Atlantic, his grandson Willy (willy) saw the air and watches the traffic on the huge demand.

Since then, Breitling began to control the cabin of the aircraft supporting the production of precision instruments Taiwan timer, since Boeing and Lockheed, such as Douglas or its users. 1979 Ernest Schneider receiving the company, the Breitling is committed to producing unique and innovative multi-purpose, durable watch. And the function-oriented navigation, navigation, diving and other special industries. Breitling-person table for the “aviation computer.”
