Swiss Breitling Chronomat Wrist Watch

This exceptional Breitling is a remarkable timepiece exuding both elegance and functionality. The Chronomat, launched in the 1940s, was a defining moment in Breitling’s history and holds significant aviation applications, reflecting the company’s roots in the aeronautical world.

The integrated sliding rule on the bezel plays a pivotal role in aviation-related calculations, making it a valuable tool for pilots and aviation enthusiasts. This sliding rule bezel serves a multifunctional purpose, allowing the wearer to determine factors such as fuel consumption, distance traveled, climb, and descent rates. Equipped with additional useful features, the watch boasts a tachometer for calculating speed, a telemetre for measuring distance, and a pulsometer for calculating heart rate.

The Arabic numeral dial enhances readability and adds a classic touch to the overall design. The sub-second dial is positioned on the left side, while the accumulation dial is on the right, contributing to a balanced and symmetrical layout.

Operated by manual wind and housed in an 18K yellow gold case, this timepiece reflects a traditional and hands-on approach to keeping time, while the acrylic crystal provides durability. This exceptional Chronomat embodies a blend of precision, style, and practicality, making it a timeless piece for watch and aviation enthusiasts and collectors alike.

This watch bears a complete restoration and a one-year warranty.
