Marina Milojević | 12.08.16 | 02:11 AM

Breitling Navitimer, the iconic model that has symbolized the Breitling brand ever since 1952, arrives in a special, limited edition, with a black and brown dial.

This time, the famous pilot's instrument, comes in a case made of steel, and with an elegant dial enhanced by gold-toned hands. The great watchmaking classic, inspired by high-performance measuring instruments, boasts a masculine diameter of 46 mm, and, for the first time ever, features an exclusive Panamerican black dial with hollowed brown counters. The brown inner bezel of the world's oldest continuously produced Chronograph, features a logarithmic, double rotating slide rule, which enables the wearer to quickly and easily calculate fuel consumption, rate of climbing or descending, and average speeds.

Breitling Navitimer 01 (46 mm) Limited Edition

In its latest, modern-day variant, the aviator chronograph Navitimer keeps up with the original aesthetics of the vintage Navitimer from 1952 - a model that was officially recommended as a pilot's watch by the “Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association” (AOPA). The recognizable Navitimer aesthetics is enhanced by gold-toned hands and logo, along with a red chronograph sweep-seconds hand. The silvery lettering on the dial is created using the rare, and extremely classy par épargne technique. This means that a dial is actually a solid piece of silver, and markers and lettering are actually fragments of exposed silver, and not lacquered paint!
