Breitling Navitimer A13322

Breitling Old Navitimer A13322 Black Dial on Bracelet

First released in 1952 and based on Breitling’s 1942 Chronomat, the Breitling Navitimer was the pilot’s watch to end all pilot’s watches. Following Breitling’s collaboration with the AOPA (Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association) to make the slide rule of its Chronomat even more relevant to pilots, the Navitimer was born as the ultimate pilot’s watch. Basically a hand-held computer, the Navitimer enabled pilots to quickly figure out fuel consumption rates, average speeds, convert between various scales, and much more. Offered here we have the Old Navitimer II ref. A13322 hailing from the 1990s. Made of stainless steel and measuring 41.5mm in diameter and 14mm tall, it wears with a distinctly modern wrist presence, something that Breitling’s timepieces have been known and loved for over the decades. Boasting a true-to-the-original black dial with a tri-compax design with three matching white subdials at 12, 6 and 9 o’clock, the A13322 features a white chapter ring for its slide rule bezel and punchy red accents that highlight the complexity of the Navitimer’s information-dense dial. A Navitimer variant that merges the collection’s historical aesthetic with Breitling’s modern build quality and attention to detail, the A13322 has helped power Breitling's ascension to the peak of sports watchmaking that they currently occupy in a manner that Breitling fans can only appreciate.
