A must-read for anyone wanting a Breitling Navitimer, a timeless classic model! We'll teach you how to choose the Navitimer that's right for you.

[What is a Navitimer?]

The Navitimer is Breitling's flagship model, released in 1952. Even now, 70 years after its birth, it remains a timeless masterpiece with a timeless classic design as a chronograph watch, captivating many fans of all generations.

One look at the three well-balanced subdials that are characteristic of the Navitimer, and the aviation instruments with numbers arranged in a circle around the edge of the dial , and you'll never forget just how good-looking it is.

The Navitimer design was also known as the "Chronomat" when it first appeared in the early 1940s.

The name Chronomat brings to mind another collection from the company that appeared in the 1980s, but it is the Navitimer that inherits the design of the original Chronomat.

[Interesting! Reviews and reputation of the Navitimer!?]

Many people who want a Navitimer cite the reason being that it has a cool look .
The dial design that peeks out from the sleeves of your outer or innerwear is a perfect item that is both sturdy and stylish.

This product is slightly larger at 43mm, making it perfect for those who want to create a muscular look around their arms !
You will definitely feel a sense of satisfaction when you wear it every day.

[History of the B logo]

Speaking of Breitling, one hot topic that deserves attention is its logo .
The logo changes periodically with every collection, naturally generating interest among fans.

This model is a Navitimer with the B logo. The B logo is produced for a very short period of time, from 2018 to 2022 .

When Breitling watches first arrived in Japan, the company's logo is said to have been a wing logo, and Japanese fans are likely familiar with the logo design with a wing motif.

Opinions are divided on the logo that emphasizes the initial B, but as a reproduction of the B logo used on the "Co-Pilot" released in 1953 , it is well-known for giving the dial a clean, smart look.

[There are so many options for B logo Navitimers! Find your favorite dial design!]

The B logo dial designs are available in a wide range of styles, from standard styles to edition styles from various countries .
Even with dials of the same model number, there are slight differences in design, such as whether or not they have a chronometer notation .

If you prefer a cleaner design, we recommend a watch without the chronometer marking, but if you prefer a more intricately designed watch, we recommend a watch with the marking.

When we asked Breitling why there was a difference in the notation, they told us that at the time they were still exploring dial designs, and so there were different types with the same product number but not all of them.

Although there are differences in the design of the dial, there are no differences in the internal functions or price, so choose the one that you like best based on your honest feelings .

[First in-house movement! The excellent Caliber B01]

Breitling's in-house caliber B01 was developed over a period of approximately five years.
The reason it is said to be excellent is that it has a highly precise movement that has been COSC-certified as a chronometer .

COSC is the abbreviation for the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute. To pass the chronometer certification, a watch must pass a measurement test over a period of about 15 days in five different positions and three different temperature environments, and maintain a daily rate within the standard range of -4 to +6 seconds.
Caliber B01 is a certified chronometer, with a power reserve of up to 70 hours, a chronograph function , and the ability to adjust the date regardless of the time of day .

Generally, when adjusting the date of a mechanical watch, if the hour and minute hands are between 10 p.m. and 2 o'clock, it is recommended that you move the hands to a time outside of that time period before adjusting the date, in order to prevent malfunctions caused by the meshing of internal gears. However, Caliber B01 overcomes this weak point!

By improving the work efficiency of technical staff during after-sales maintenance and realizing a design that minimizes human error, high-quality maintenance is now possible.
