Spotlight On: Breitling Watches

From the humble beginnings in 1884 in the small Swiss shop of Léon Breitling, to the far reaches of the atmosphere, Breitling watches have always meant reliability. The epitome of precise movement and design, the Breitling brand is nearly as important to flight as the air itself. Breitling has been an innovator in time keeping and is the literal inventor of the chronograph.

The Breitling Company is not content to rest on its famous laurels. 1984 marked the creation of the renowned Chronomat, and revolutionized once again in 2009 with the self-winding Caliber 01.
