Avengers Assemble: Breitling Redesigns Its Sportiest Aero Series

Stylish yet authentic details, durable next-generation materials, and features like the brand’s powerful in-house caliber 01 redefine the flight of the new Breitling Avenger unveiled earlier today.

In a press release today on the newly designed Avenger series, Breitling CEO Georges Kern said: “The Avenger series was born to withstand the harsh conditions of a jet cockpit and support pilots in their operations. Highly demanding air mobility. It requires no less redesign.”

Offering three core styles – 44mm Chronograph, 44mm Automatic GMT Chronograph and 42mm Automatic Chronograph – Cohen continued in his statement about the new Avenger collection, “This collection combines all the performance with refined modernity. A perfect combination of aviation style.” Honestly, we find it hard to disagree, especially when you consider that the additional strap and detailing options open up a vast new world of Avengers for adventurous fans.

Avenger B01 Chronograph 44 and Night Mission
In addition to the inherent advantages of the Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01 that powers these models, which include COSC certification and a 70-hour power reserve, the Avenger B01 Chronograph’s choice of dial colors highlights its versatility: first, there’s the classic black dial; Equipped with black quarter-second, 30-minute and 12-hour counters. Next, there are Munsell Blue and Foam Green versions, both with black counters. Finally, there is a sandy beige model with white hour markers and black counters.

All models are crafted from stainless steel with white and red detailing and are available on a color-matched military leather strap or a sturdy three-link stainless steel bracelet. Additionally, these chronographs are water-resistant up to 30 bar, have sporty dials coated with Super-LumiNova, and also feature a unidirectional bezel and display case back.

Not to be outdone, the combination of the four watches’ sister watch, the Avenger B01 Chronograph 44 Night Mission, is as technical as it is bold, with a durable yet lightweight 44mm black ceramic case and rotating bezel . Available in dark or bold yellow dials with matching straps, these timepieces have Arabic hour markers and an additional luminous coating that takes the legibility of these timepieces up a notch.

Avenger Automatic GMT 44
The GMT-equipped model in the new Avengers collection, the Avenger Automatic GMT 44, is based on the rock-solid Breitling Caliber 32 movement with a 42-hour power reserve and features an easily set red second time zone. Hands passing through the stout main crown include Zulu (or GMT) time, which is preferred by pilots.

The Avenger Automatic GMT 44 also features a 44mm stainless steel case with a bolder, more legible bezel and a choice of dials, including traditional black or soft cobalt, as well as military leather in black or blue. Strap or thick stainless steel bracelet options.

Avenger Automatic 42
Powered by the COSC-certified Breitling Caliber 17 movement with a 38-hour power reserve and a sporty unidirectional stainless steel bezel, this new Avenger Automatic 42 Three-Hand Watch appeals to those looking for a rugged, adventure-ready small watch. of people expressed some love. Similar to their Avenger B01 Chronograph 44 sibling.

In fact, the Avenger Automatic 42 model is definitely a smaller, less graphically detailed version of the Avenger B01 Chronograph 44 (sans the chronograph pushers and subdials, of course); however, these entry-level steel Avenger models are available in black, navy or camouflage green dial is available, and there is also the option of a color-matched military leather strap or steel bracelet, which makes a great visual and horological statement. A punch that will get attention. swiss movement replica watches

Breitling Avenger Automatic GMT 45 and GMT 45 Night Mission hands-on

Swiss watch company Breitling recently hosted a new Breitling Summit concept event in Los Angeles. Among the new models introduced are these two GMT watches: the Breitling Avenger Automatic GMT 45 (Ref. A32395101C1A1 or A32395101C1X1 / A32395101C1X2) and the related Avenger Automatic GMT 45 Night Mission (Ref. V32395101B1X1 / V32395101B1X2).

First, a little bit about the brand’s campaign. I have said many times recently that the brand has been one of the best performing luxury watch companies over the past 18 months due to the rejuvenation of Georges Kern and his ability to execute on his ideas. If anything, Cohen’s short stint at Breitling (about two years) proved that if a company’s treasury arm allows the CEO to spend and invest for the future, no matter the current state of global investor confidence, you The power of what can be done. The good news for Breitling is that even today, their hard work has paid off.

Weeks before the release of his first film (in French), George Cohen sat at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills with guests from all over the Americas to see him, his friends and his new work. I personally have never seen Mr. Cohen so relaxed and seems so hopeful for the future.

One of the reasons for Mr Cohen’s positive attitude is that Breitling’s business is growing – and in important regions such as the US and China. The United States has always been a strong market for Breitling. (It is often said to be the third-largest Swiss luxury watchmaker in the United States, behind Rolex and Omega.) Cohen was a globalist who understood that while tastes and preferences differed everywhere, Breitling needed to be a global watchmaker. brand. every meaning of the word. From a product standpoint, Cohen has also been lucky, not only because of his ability to simplify the brand’s notoriously chaotic model collections, but also because he has an archive of designs and styles that are particularly stylish today.

Well-made, good-looking watches aren’t enough, and Cohen’s understanding of Hollywood appeal mirrors his understanding of marketing. This, combined with his two decades of experience in the watch industry, makes him one of the very few CEOs of a leading watch brand who has the courage to try new things amidst a global recession, low morale, and extravagant luxury. Explorers (who continue to exist in droves) are chasing different pleasures than the previous generation.

For example, the next person to wear an Avenger Automatic GMT 45 might become a drone racing champion. In fact, Breitling is incorporating the movement of drone flight into its aviation heritage. The logic is sound, and on top of that, drone racing is also attracting a new generation of computer and video gamers looking for sports and heroes to relate to them.

From a horological standpoint, these new GMT watches are a smart move by Breitling, unlike anything I can think of in the current collection. What other time and GMT Breitling watch (without the chrono complication) can you think of? I know they’ve made GMT watches before, but I don’t think Breitling has actually made a modern GMT watch (and I’m not counting world time because that’s a completely different style of watch).

As GMT watches, these are good-looking timepieces, and the red GMT hands on both the blue-dial steel version and the military-style Night Mission are very easy to read and not easily confused with the hour or minute hands. On the other hand, the 24-hour scale is a bit small and requires good observation skills. This does mean that the unidirectional rotating bezel can still be used for the 60-minute chronograph – a rarity for a GMT watch in this line, to be honest. Plus, there’s the case size to contend with, making the Avenger Automatic GMT 45 too big for many people’s wrists. It is entirely possible that Breitling will introduce more versions with smaller cases in the future.

George Cohen also mentioned that part of his new strategy will be to release fewer watches at a time. Only 14 SKUs were launched at the Breitling Summit. In the past, the brand has produced such plentiful versions of each model that it has paralyzed consumers with choice. They do this because different tastes around the world will prompt them to produce slightly different styles. Today, brands are much more aware of what sells and what doesn’t, while being careful not to flood consumers or the news market with too much information at once. That’s my explanation of why Breitling seems to be teasing a new Avenger GMT watch concept, with two models in it, and it feels like there are plenty of other models that could be hiding behind the scenes. I personally love that these brands want people to focus on just a few styles and color treatments at a time.

In 2019, Breitling retired the Colt series and merged it into the Avenger series. These watches always looked too similar, and the new Avenger series actually has a completely new construction, but still has the iconic look and feel of modern Breitling. The case is 45mm wide and thanks to the generous lugs, they have real heft. They feel thin at just 12.3mm considering the width, and the case is water-resistant to 30 meters, with an AR-coated sapphire crystal on the dial.

Inside the watch, Breitling cheap uses a movement of Swiss origin (base ETA 2893, I believe), which they call a Caliber 32. It runs at 4 Hz, has a power reserve of approximately 42 hours, and features a date function in addition to the time and a 24-hour GMT hand for a second time zone display. Each Breitling movement is certified by the Swiss Official Observatory (COSC-Chronometer).

The Breitling Avenger Automatic GMT 45 is made of stainless steel with a combination of polished and brushed cases. When it first launched, it only had a blue dial and index hour markers, and the case was available with a matching blue fabric (leather-lined) strap or a beautiful three-link steel bracelet (my choice). The black and khaki-tan theme of the Avenger Automatic GMT 45 Night Mission makes everything more interesting.

The GMT 45 Night Mission is a handsome little devil with a black DLC-coated titanium case paired with a “sand-coloured” leather strap. The dial features a combination of indexes and stenciled hour markers that consistently create a good looking look. I imagine one could criticize Breitling for being too cautious about design innovation at this stage of the brand’s operations – and you might be right. That said, Breitling today does an excellent job of condensing Breitling’s core aesthetics into very stylish styles (even if they aren’t too original within the brand). In a few years, I think we’ll see more innovations in design from Mr. Kern. Currently, I think he is still trying to distill the core essence of Breitling in the various brand pillars (Aviation 8, Navitimer, Premier, SuperOcean, etc…).

Breitling now has two interesting contenders for the GMT model, but the competition in this space is fierce. I think these two Avenger automatic GMT 45 watches are popular, but it will take some time for people to really appreciate them. At that point, Breitling may further flesh out the collection and try out how Breitling can create a GMT fashion watches that only they can achieve.

NEW Breitling RB01392A1C1P1  Navitimer B01 Chronograph 41

Breitling copy Watches: The Revival and the Influence of George Kern

Breitling needs no introduction. Just by hearing the name, I’m sure you’ve probably already gotten an impression of their watches, such is their reputation and how solid their design image is.

Breitling is a manufacturer with a particularly loyal fan base, having produced some of the most well-known watches such as the Navitimer and Emergency. Still, they have the ability to capture a wider range of needs given their unique design language and pricing.

However, being one of the most recognizable watchmakers doesn’t mean Breitling isn’t facing challenges, most recently before 2017. The brand has been struggling with internal and external headwinds. Internally, there is no route, and externally, they face more intense competition, market trends and consumer demands.

Fortunately, under the management of Georges Kern and the capital injection of CVC Capital in 2017, this came full circle. Perfect Fake Watches

In 2022, according to Morgan Stanley, Breitling has entered the top 10 Swiss watchmakers by total sales revenue. Here’s how my solution works. Good to know I’m not one to be drawn to their more modern versions!

historical past
Before we consider the current Breitling, we have to look to its past to appreciate just how rich its history is. This always helps to set the context because watches are emotional commodities and much of what drives a watch or model’s will comes from what they symbolize. Breitling began in 1884 when Leon Breitling opened his first atelier in Switzerland. His and the models’ main focus is the chronograph, which is where they’ve found success. They have been used extensively and managed to create improvements that are still relevant today.

In 1893, Breitling created a movement with an 8-day power reserve, and a pulsometer that doctors used to know their heart rate.

Thereafter, in 1915, Breitling moved the chronograph start/stop pusher from the crown to the 2 o’clock position, and in 1934 the reset pusher to the 4 o’clock position. This helps stop any unintentional pushing, increasing accuracy and ease of use. Breitling designed the blueprint for almost all future two-pusher chronographs.

From here, Breitling in the 1930s and 1940s worked to build the brand identity we know today. Founded in 1932, Willy Breitling probably realized the importance of aviation and focused on producing cockpit equipment. After this, innovation continued and in 1940 they developed and introduced the logarithmic coordinate rule Best replica watch site, which allowed mathematical operations to be calculated.

During this time, we started seeing ranges we already knew, some of which are still in the current range, such as the 1943 Premier.

With the formation of the Model ID, the development of the model outside the Navy was noticed in the fifties. Most notably, 1952 saw the introduction of the Navitimer – a hybrid of a navigator and a chronograph – which was purchased for civilian pilots as a device that allowed them to perform all the calculations necessary for flight. Initially, it was purchased only for members of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), but it was so profitable that it was introduced to the public.

Breitling added other features, such as a Co-Pilot chronograph, but 1957 took another big step with the introduction of the SuperOcean.

Perhaps events, competitors, and the need for different dive watches at the time contributed to the brand’s determination to turn its attention to the ocean. Like the vast majority of Swiss manufacturers, Breitling has struggled through the quartz disaster. Possession changed and under the leadership of Ernest Schneider, Breitling began to adopt quartz watches because it provided pilots with the necessary precision. This spawned the “Professional Equipment” tagline.

Meanwhile, Breitling continued to supply mechanical watches and launched the Chronomat on the occasion of Breitling’s centenary. A big mechanical watch, diametrically opposed to market trends, yet highly regarded.

Still, while Breitling has found success in new territories, there is no doubt that their popularity comes from aviation-focused chronographs. Swiss replica watches review

The Breitling Challenge
Breitling has a long history and has had some great successes on this watch planet. It overcame the quartz crisis under the new leadership of Ernest Schneider, the Swiss soldier and former head of Sicira (a small watch company), and played a pivotal role in the renaissance of mechanical timepieces.

Still, Breitling faces some difficulties, rather than a clear-cut problem. Before 2017, various internal and external factors went hand in hand to negatively impact Breitling. This has resulted in a mild demise when it comes to each collector’s curiosities and total sales.

Those who revisit the Breitling website on these occasions or have been following the model will know that Breitling’s product line is very complicated. Not complicated in terms of action, but from a consumer perspective. There are so many fashions to choose from. Chrono24 lists 604 specials on the market from 2007-2016! There are at least 11 different sets of these.

Giving choice to consumers is usually optimistic, but that’s gone, with a plethora of watch face options (colors and configurations), issues and sizes to choose from. In one of the best occasions, it’s hard to keep the story and emotion behind a watch, especially for lesser-known fashion. Doing this for more than 600 references is almost unthinkable.

And there are different points, especially the model route. On the one hand, you’ll have party staples like Navitimer, SuperOcean, and Emergency, but on the other, you’ll have For Bentley and Transocean fashions.

Then in these series, the design is different. This isn’t a knock on any model, more of a focus on design consistency and language that has been mixed up and out of focus (I don’t know what’s going on under the hood, but that’s my superficial impression).

Take Transocean vary as an example. Under this 2007-2016 nomenclature, you’ll find vintage-inspired chronographs, world time chronographs, day-date chronographs, and moon phase chronographs. It might not sound like much, but it boils down to inconsistent design.

Breitling’s complex messaging confuses potential buyers, and if you find yourself selling an emotional product, it’s not the best option.

Outside of Breitling, broader horological trends have been changing.

What matters is size. As we mentioned in our Watch Developments article, demand shifted from larger diameter timepieces to more wearable ones. If Breitling pays close attention to pilot watches, the models tend to be (very) bulky in general size. Panerai faces a similar dilemma, although they specialize in large dive watches.

Looking at the trends, it appears that the most produced watch sizes are between 41-43mm. If we compare this to what Breitling has to offer, we see that between 2007 and 2016, the best part of the watches they sold were 44mm.

Breitling’s later highest measurement grades were 43mm and 46mm. Curiously, 9% of all Breitling watches are currently 48mm, which is almost double the average share of final models with watches over 47mm in diameter.

Breitling is clearly catering to an audience that loves these big-ticket items the most. But it’s not just size preferences that have changed, but also aesthetics. Want most best Breitling watches before 2017, they are very busy. Many may simply be chronographs with three sub-dials, but the look is refined due to the size of the sub-dials, the scale of the indexes, and the use of minute markers and Arabic numerals.

On top of that, Breitling watches have been (and still are to a certain extent) very polished and thus can be considered more ostentatious – think its Bentley line. There may always be demand for this type of watch, and there is some matching under their “professional equipment” tagline and aviation theme; however, tastes change all the time. You notice a stylistic shift in classic watches.

Curiosity for classic watches is up, but so is demand for brand new watches inspired by vintage. One of the best examples of this is the launch of the Tudor Black Bay and its subsequent success.

Individually, the use of fauxtina on watches became more common, with the first words of the word appearing around 2012. These watches ushered in a new wave of simplicity. Impressed by what came before, a lot of the extreme styling was thrown out when the watch was actually used as a tool.

Before you said it, I got it: the Navitimer has always looked complicated, but this is reflected in other Breitling collections.

It’s easy to see why Breitling has faced headwinds now. The model has such a long history and presence that it wants to be hooped, and luckily, that’s what happened in 2017.

Breitling Super AVI

Breitling presents the new classic AVI “Co-Pilot” in a 42 mm case Breitling showcased their modern Super AVI collection at an airstrip in Dallas in 2021, featuring real warplanes and pilots. We’re here to bring you live coverage, and while we spotted some of the design, the case itself measures 46 x 15.9mm, making it harder to swallow. To solve this problem, Breitling introduced a new Classic AVI series in the collection, which had a more wrist-friendly 42×14.7mm case, but sacrificed the GMT complication found in the Super AVI series. Additionally, there is a 41mm reference in this version. 765 1964 re-edition, faithful to the old school form inside and out.

The new Classic AVI watch follows the same design language as we’ve seen in the Super AVI, itself a reference to the early ’50s Breitling model 765, a watch that won the ‘Co-Pilot’ award for its usefulness to pilots nickname time. The design of the Super AVI watches was inspired by the iconic WWII aircraft, and the Classic AVI collection utilizes the same scheme to good effect. This includes the P-51 Mustang, Vought F4U Corsair, Curtiss P-40 Warhawk and Mosquito aircraft, each in 4 different colorways.

The latest AVI watches use the Breitling Caliber 23, which is their modified Valjoux 7753. This means that the pricing is also more attractive than the Super AVI series, and if you like bracelets, one of the watches released in this classic AVI series is the ref. The 765 1964 Re-Edition, which is sold exclusively online and in specialty stores, differs from the rest in several ways. buy watches online

The dial of the 765 1964 Re-Edition is more serene, with baton markers and pencil hands, and a single numeral 12 at the top of the dial. The seconds and hours totalizer sub-dials have also been cleaned up a bit, while the unique minutes totalizer remains at 3 o’clock. This particular watch has a 41mm case, is 14mm thick, and even touts an acrylic crystal for maximum vintage appeal. Additionally, the watch uses Breitling-made Caliber 23, a hand-wound chronograph movement with a 70-hour reserve.

The 765 1974 Re-Edition is probably the most striking modern watch to bear the AVI nameplate and respect the origin of the name in the best possible way. It’s a poignant reminder of the beauty that underpins the design language of modern Breitling. discount fake watches

The same model as Harland Why do everyone like this dual-time mechanical timepiece so much?

Breitling best launched a new series of mechanical chronograph watches in 2020. The new generation of mechanical chronograph CHRONOMAT has been very popular since it was launched. I also talked about the regular version of the chronograph style with you in depth. There are two reasons why I like it. One is that the diameter of the watch has been reduced back to 42 mm, and it has returned to the regular watch. Compared with the old model, it is more refined and coordinated, but it does not lose the essence of the tough design of the old model. Another point is that Breitling provides a variety of colorful color plates to choose from, such as green plate, salmon, and ice blue, which are popular colors on the market. Make the most of it. However, because of the thickness of the chronograph model, many watch friends are a little hesitant, so today we will introduce a more suitable dual-time model with real photos.

Mechanical chronograph Chronomat, at the end of last year, launched the mechanical chronograph dual time zone automatic mechanical watch 40 and the super mechanical chronograph automatic mechanical watch 38, which further enriched the product line with rich functions and various design sizes, combined with the previous 42 mm and The 44mm chronograph model, the four-year calendar model, including the 32mm three-needle model, the current mechanical chronograph can adapt to more wearing needs and give more optional space to consumer groups.

The stainless steel case has a diameter of 40 mm and a thickness of 11.77 mm, which belongs to the gold size range of modern men’s watches. The weight of the whole watch is 153 grams. In the treatment of the case of the watch, a large area of brushing is combined with polishing of the details of the edges and corners, and multiple decorations are alternated, which enhances the luxury attribute of the watch.

The onion-shaped crown on the other side adopts a screw-in design, and the overall waterproof performance reaches 200 meters. , allowing the watch to be in an underwater environment, reducing the possibility of accidentally opening the crown due to bumping and friction.

Mechanical timekeeping has always had two iconic designs. This 40mm dual-time work also inherits these classic elements. We can see its rotating bezel with four raised digital scale metal blocks. In order to protect the watch mirror, its function is that if the watch is accidentally dropped on the ground, the metal block will touch the hard object first, not the watch glass. However, I have seen watch friends express doubts before. The three-hand model and the two-time clock have no timing function. Simple timing, such as underwater diving timing function.

The green color on the dial makes Breitling make it very well. The real effect is deep, and the sun pattern and brushed treatment are rich in details, and the dial surface will change with the light. In fact, the green color of Breitling makes everyone think of the British racing green related to the former partner Bentley, but it is a pity that the cooperation between the two has ended, but this does not prevent Breitling from continuing to use green. Perfectly compatible with elegant and sporty disc colors, it enhances the overall aesthetics of the watch. Breitling also offers a variety of color dials including black, blue, anthracite gray and white to choose from.

There is a large calendar window with black letters on a white background at 6 o’clock on the dial. There is a 24-hour indicator on the outer edge of the dial. It is used with the red GMT pointer in the middle to indicate the second time zone. The two gears of the crown can be quickly adjusted, which is very convenient, but the crown The two-time adjustment logic is a little different from that of conventional GMT watches. The first gear of the crown is to turn the red 24-hour GMT pointer clockwise to quickly adjust the calendar counterclockwise, and the second gear is to stop the seconds to adjust the time. When your plane lands and needs to adjust the watch, first adjust the home time in the second time zone, and then adjust the main time zone where you are located. There will be a situation where the watch stops and needs to be re-adjusted. fashion replica watches

In terms of movement, the watch uses a Breitling 32 movement, which is improved from the ETA 2893-2 movement, which is a very stable unified core with GMT function. As for the watch sticker, he mentioned the feedback from the actual use of the movement, which is reliable. The full chain of the movement can provide 42 hours of dynamic storage.

Another iconic feature of the mechanical chronograph series is its integrated roller stainless steel bracelet, which is often referred to as a bullet chain by watch friends. The section design fits the wrist better.

Mechanical chronograph dual time zone automatic mechanical watch 40, its dual time zone function combined with gold size, the design purpose of this watch is too obvious, but it is for you to go out, and it can be worn comfortably when you go out, and because of the outstanding design Sexuality, this kind of sports watch shape compatible with some luxury attributes, makes it a watch that can be used in one watch, versatile and suitable for any occasion, and only one piece of it is enough to go out. I also saw some watch friends before, and they selected Breitling as the most wearable watch in recent years. I also agree with it after wearing it. It provides a comfortable wearing feel, so even if its GMT function adjustment logic is different, it does not affect my opinion that it is an excellent choice for commuting between two places.

The New Breitling Navitimer Astronaut and the Incredible Story Behind It

Not one, but two Breitling Navitimer Cosmonaute watches have just been unveiled. First up is an actual 60s-year-old watch, on public display for the first time: the first Swiss wristwatch (wowzers) to go into space, a Navitimer specially modified by astronaut Scott Carpenter. Second, the new Breitling Navitimer B02 Chronograph 41 Astronaut Limited Edition – a little wordy – is a nod to Carpenter’s 24th Mercury-Atlas 7 mission worn by astronauts who orbited the Earth three times. A modern tribute to lap time wear. May 1962. Exactly 60 years ago.

As Breitling fans know, almost every year since Georges Kern took over as CEO, the Grenchen-based watchmaker has released a “heritage” edition watch , for pure fan service. Highly limited editions, this collection includes a reissue of the legendary Navitimer 806, as well as a trio of AVI 765 (a favorite of Breitling historian and consultant Fred Mandelbaum). This year, Breitling marks another important brand milestone around the 1962 Cosmonaute, the 60th anniversary of another legendary reference watch with two unique characteristics: First, it is recognized by Breitling collectors as the first Swiss watch in space. The Discount replica watches, and secondly, its unique 24-hour time display, was at the special request of Carpenter himself.

Why display 24 hours in space? On a 5-hour space mission?

That’s not to say he can track AM/PM times any more safely and conveniently. Space missions revolve around many complex elements, and redundancy is certainly one of them. Requires 24 hours to be displayed on the Navitimer so that it is redundant with the on-board clock – for obvious reasons it shows the time in what Americans call “Military Time” and what we Europeans call “Time”. If onboard timekeeping is interrupted, the watch will still display the time in a manner that allows seamless communication with mission control.

At the launch of the new Navitimer Cosmonaute, astronaut and Breitling Pioneer Squad member Scott Kelly candidly shared a detail. The time between the consignment of the watch and its delivery by the watchmaker under the direction of Willy Breitling was tight. Carpenter’s daughter, Kris Stoever, recalled that on March 15, the first flight was assigned, and the request to Breitling was still on NASA’s letterhead in March. Due to time constraints, the request was only submitted to Breitling shortly before the flight, sometime in May. Breitling — a company dabbled in aviation watches (Navitimer had been around for 10 years at the time) — complied quickly and excitedly and sent the watches (essentially prototypes) in haste. Scott Carpenter loves his new watch so much, as his daughter said at the launch,

That’s true even if Carpenter’s first 24-hour Navitimer Cosmonaute lived a brilliant but short life.

After returning to Earth, the watch was exposed to seawater while Carpenter floated somewhere in the ocean waiting to be recovered from his capsule. The automatic return system designed to guide him to a specific location failed on the way back, and Carpenter is now using manual controls, over 250 nautical miles (450 kilometers) – considering he was descending at 7.9 kilometers per second at some point, Not bad. For a full 49 minutes, the rescue team didn’t know where the capsule and Carpenter were. With the system not working properly, the capsule capsized on landing and the astronauts were forced to escape and make a U-turn. During this process, watches exposed to salty sea water, especially their dials and movements, were severely corroded. It has been the private collection of the Breitling family for 60 years and has just been revealed, for the first time since a journey into space – and into the ocean. Carpenter saw the damage and sent the watch back to Breitling, who sent him a brand new watch, which is still owned by the Carpenter family today.

But wait, why not the first watch to go into space? Well, this was more of a space race issue than a simple watchmaker issue: the lesser known Russian “Strela” held the distinction, but pilots and space pioneers in the western world didn’t end up wearing them universally, so We are here.

A few more words about the first Swiss watch to go into space. Breitling recalls: “On May 24, 1962, five hours after launch, the Aurora 7 capsule carrying Carpenter landed safely in the Atlantic Ocean. The recovery operation lasted three hours and prolonged exposure to seawater caused Carpenter’s Cosmonaute Damage beyond repair. Breitling promptly replaced Carpenter’s watch, but that worn, corroded piece of space history remains in the Breitling family archives – unrestored and widely known. That is, to this day.”

Interestingly, 60 years on, the Navitimer, including every piece in the recently overhauled collection (hands-on here), is still largely unsuitable for water exposure. Breitling was candid about telling us at the time that the rotating bezel made a major effort to be water resistant, but because of the way it had to interact with the inner flange ring, water resistance could only be achieved by significantly increasing the thickness – that’s not Breitling Hope this pilot watch is the way to go. So, Navitimer, including this Breitling Navitimer Astronaut 2022 Limited Edition.

So no, neither the Navitimer nor the Navitimer Cosmonaute has turned into a water-resistant chronograph – if you want one of these, get a Chronomat, Superocean Heritage, Avenger, Premier or Endurance Pro – pretty much any other Breitling. But if you want a watch with a rotating slide rule and want it to be called a Navitimer, you’re better off wearing a pilot suit instead of a wetsuit, which is fine.

Thankfully, the new model, PB02301A1B1P1 (or PB02301A1B1A1 if you want to use it on a bracelet) isn’t just another reissue of the Cosmonaute – it’s definitely a luxury take on one of the earliest known dedicated watches Way Astronaut, a watch that pays homage to its fans with a hand-wound 24-hour display movement and chronograph, stainless steel case and platinum bezel (a tribute to Mandelbaum). Of course, a far cry from refereeing in terms of material and movement. The 809 worn by John Glenn in his groundbreaking Earth orbit in 1962, but just as strong in its proper, pure astronaut vibe.

The case of the new Breitling Navi Chronograph Astronaut Limited Edition measures 41mm and is just 13mm thick – thanks to the hand-wound-only B02 movement, which does away with the automatic winding system it was based on, the B01. The impressive combination of power reserve and frequency retention of 70 hours and 4 Hz, column wheel and vertical clutch – all four cornerstones of modern chronograph movements – are also here. With lugs measuring 47.09mm, the Navitimer Cosmonaute fits beautifully not only with the original, but with the changing trends in the larger watch trend.

On the wrist, the Breitling Navitimer Cosmonaute made me come up with an alternative space-themed term for “tabletop diving,” a phrase, if you’re new to watches, for those of us who wear over-engineered dives Table people come to the office, but it never works out as intended. Am I a desk freak (I’m sorry) rocking a 24 hour dial and didn’t you know that Scott Carpenter asked for his space mission? I have no idea. All I know is that if I’m in the market for a Navitimer, I’d really like to try and buy one of the 362 pieces of the brand new Navitimer Cosmonaute Limited Edition. Its rarity and platinum bezel are very alluring. On the other hand, there are some dazzlingly beautiful new renditions of the “regular” and very fresh Navitimer, which costs a lot less — $1,800 — and is probably easier to read than the somewhat cramped and busy 24-hour dial. 41mm watch.

Gorgeous GMT-Breitling Mechanical Chronograph Series Two Time Watches

Breitling’s Chronomat mechanical chronograph series was re-launched in 2020. The models are available in both feminine lady and sister sizes as small as 32 mm, and steel straight male sizes as large as 44 mm, but the only thing missing is the regular watch between 36 and 42 mm. size. It is typical to only care about two ends, regardless of the moment. Faced with such an important series, Breitling realized the existence of the problem, so last month it launched a 38mm diamond-encrusted model and a 40mm two-time model. Let’s talk about this 40mm two-time model. local time.

This time, Breitling chose to use the dual time function to match the 40mm size. I think it is very wise. As a loyal fan of the dual time function, I said in the previous program that the function of the mechanical watch is really usable today. In addition to the calendar, the most useful and practical function is the time of the two places. This dual-time Breitling specially provides five dial colors for it. Among the five colors, only this green dial in my hand can highlight the bright red 24-hour hand, which not only enhances the readability, but also implication. Excellent, the so-called bright red and bright green, go everywhere in the world.

Compared with the ultimate tough guy appearance of the super chronograph, this dual time Breitling fake has chosen elegance, comfort and sport. This can be immediately appreciated from its thickness of 11.77 mm. This strap is not only comfortable to wear, but the onion crown and needle bearing bracelet unique to the mechanical chronograph series are more refined with the size of 40 mm. In addition, its 200-meter waterproof performance and one-way rotating diving scale circle are also convenient for everyone to play in the water at any time when traveling around. Of course, I hope that the super version can be launched in the two places in the future. The so-called super version is to replace the vulnerable parts of the case with ceramic parts, such as the 38mm version launched with it this time.

This watch uses the Breitling Caliber 32 GMT movement, which is improved and modified from the stable ETA 2893-2 movement. It has a power reserve of 42 hours. Although I will not doubt the durability and precision of this movement nature, but I really want to complain about the dual-time function of this movement. According to the conventional logic of the dual-time function, the 24-hour pointer displays the home time, which is convenient for users to know exactly what time it is in the morning or afternoon at home. The hour hand displays the destination time, which is convenient for the user to quickly adjust the main hour hand to synchronize with the local time without stopping the watch after arriving at the destination.

But this watch is reversed, the crown is pulled out to the first gear, the 24-hour hand is turned clockwise, the calendar is adjusted counterclockwise, and the second gear is to stop the seconds and adjust the time. If you use it backwards, you will not be able to see the main hour hand intuitively when you read the time locally, and you will not be able to quickly know whether it is morning or afternoon at home. Although this feature is not so easy to use, it is better than nothing after all. Let me finally conclude that Breitling’s mechanical chronograph has outstanding appearance, excellent texture, dexterous body, practical functions and stable performance. It is an excellent commuter travel replica watches price.

Watch the movie Brad Pitt wearing a platinum Breitling AVI Ref. 765 1953 Reissue of Bullet Train

This heavy, vintage-inspired platinum fake watch comes in handy in our watch-related movies this week.

In the new, ridiculous action movie Bullet Train, Brad Pitt plays a contract criminal who gets a briefcase full of $10 million by doing a simple snatch job. Yes, the case is on a bullet train.

Pete received contemporaneous instructions over the phone from his manager, and his job was to get on the bus at one stop, pick up the goods, and get off at the next stop. Given that this is a movie – like Kill Bill meets a kung fu hoax – I’m sure you can guess that there are no plans. Instead, Pete has to face a train full of criminals, all of whom unknowingly get caught up in an impossibly intertwined scene.

As a result, the only thing left to do is to fight each other mercilessly on the moving train. Pete is serious in this film and wears a precious metals retro revival of the blue-chip indie watch brand.

why are we watching
Today marks the opening day of the highly anticipated action comedy, directed by Pitt’s former stuntman David Leitch (as vividly as the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood plot is). I had the opportunity to attend an early screening and I had a great time. If you’re nervous about spurting blood, this one probably isn’t for you. However, if you like a good show on a watch on screen, and can manage to avoid some very intense (and often hilarious) over-the-top violence, in order to see said watch, I suggest you check this out.

Pitt plays Ladybug (codename, not real name – it’s the kind of movie where everyone has a codename). He is a hired thief/potential assassin who finds himself in hand-to-hand combat with other teams of assassins he has encountered in other jobs in the past. I won’t spoil why they find themselves together on this train, but let’s just say they don’t necessarily get along, and Ladybug is involved in some well-choreographed scenes that perfectly balance action and humor.

Is this a great movie? No, but it’s a quintessential summer popcorn movie — and one that’s even better because Ladybugs do all those ass kicks in a special Breitling retro revival.

Released in 2021, the Breitling AVI Ref. 765 1953 Re-edition is a (shockingly) modern re-edition of the 1953 vintage Breitling watch, a complete vintage-meets-modern watch. We spent a week on the wrist with the steel variant of this model last year, and our very own Cole Pennington had some interesting things to say when comparing the new watch to the OG on which it’s based. “If the ’53 models were NOS [old and new stock] and hadn’t aged a day, I would have a hard time distinguishing them,” he wrote. “Even the difference in weight between watches is difficult to discern.”

Now, Pete chose the watch to wear in the movie, but he didn’t opt ​​for any changes. He became a movie star and opted for a platinum model with a blue dial. Only Pitt can strap a platinum vintage reissue watch to his wrist, make a creepy action movie, and make it look ordinary. Speaking of straps, he even swapped its leather strap for a stronger Breitling strap.

I know what you’re all thinking, “Come on, Danny, Brad Pitt is a Breitling ambassador! It’s just product placement.” Well, you’re right, Pitt is a Breitling ambassador. In fact, more specifically, he was a member of the Breitling film squad, working alongside Adam Driver and Charlize Theron. But you know what? Who cares, because Pete can easily wear whatever old watch Breitling wants him to wear. Maybe something more modern, maybe something the brand has a strong interest in selling. But that’s not what happened here. Instead, he chose the most esoteric version of a super-specific retro remake and made it part of his role in the film. Just because he’s paid for by a brand doesn’t mean the choice can’t be thoughtful. reviews aaa quality watches

He wears this watch throughout the movie. It’s always visible, although the amount of combat makes it difficult to laser light it at some point. The best part is that the movie features a close-up watch of the hero shots, which is probably the best I’ve seen in recent memory. It’s the kind of shot you can pause, frame, and hang on the wall if you want (though I’d also find it odd to do so).

Personally, I like the selection of Ladybug watches. He plays a somewhat indifferent character. A criminal who has recently undergone some soul searching and therapy and wants to improve his mental health while continuing to operate in the criminal underworld. Who knows if some big score in his past gave him a briefcase full of cash to go out and buy this platinum Breitling, or if it should represent an antique watch that may have been passed down to him. In either case, it looks very good. I mean, what can’t Brad Pitt accomplish?

when we are watching
Halfway through the film, Ladybug encounters an assassin named Orange (played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson) on a train. The two immediately get into hand-to-hand combat as Tangerine knows Ladybug is looking for the same briefcase he was looking for. They fought through various train cars until they reached the dining car. While hitting, kicking, and throwing objects, the pair were interrupted by a train worker who needed food. Staff did not notice the fight before she entered, asking if they wanted something to eat or drink. Ladybug gleefully asks for a bottle of water, and as he does, we can see the ’53 Re-Edition on his wrist. He continued to drink said water until she left, at which point…they fought again.

Later, Ladybug makes contact with another assassin, and a big fight ensues. Notice the theme here? After the fight, I definitely won’t spoil it, the ladybug is a little anxious, hiding on the floor of the train with a paper bag in hand. We can see the Breitling fake and its leather strap very clearly on his wrist as he tries to breathe and exhale the pressure. As you might expect, this won’t be his last fight.

Breitling Unveils New Super Ocean Automatic Watch

As a brand, Breitling is arguably best known for its chronographs. However, the renowned Swiss manufacturer also has a long history in producing dive watches, dating back to 1957. The latest addition to the Superocean, Breitling’s collection dedicated to divers, draws from the highly sought-after Breitling Superocean slow-motion diving chronographs produced in the 1960s and 1970s in a variety of sizes, colours and materials aesthetic inspiration. Although the original model was specifically designed for scuba diving,

The new Breitling SuperOcean Automatic collection is available in 36mm, 42mm, 44mm and 46mm case sizes, while material options include stainless steel, two-tone (steel and 18k red gold) and available in 42mm and Breitling representations The 44mm model is highly resistant to corrosion while still being able to develop a unique and subtle sheen. As they are part of the larger Superocean collection, all new models feature rotating chronograph bezels with scratch- and fade-resistant ceramic inserts. The 36mm, 42mm and 44mm models feature a standard unidirectional rotating bezel, while the 46mm version features a bidirectional bezel including a patented locking mechanism. On all new Breitling Superocean automatics,

Available in a number of different colours depending on the watch’s case size, the dial of the new Breitling Superocean Automatic is where the retro slow-motion influence immediately manifests. Like the original model, the dial is surrounded by a high-contrast ring that contains the minute track, while the face of the dial is adorned with chunky square and rectangular hour markers. The original Slow Motion’s distinctive square minute hand also returns, with the seconds hand receiving a coloured circular tip as a subtle nod to the “dot” – a circular window that appears on the original Breitling Slow Motion dial depending on whether the chronograph is running, paused or Stop showing models in different colors. Also, as you would expect from a proper dive watch,

The biggest difference between the vintage Breitling fake slow-motion models and the new Superocean automatic is their function. The original version was a chronograph modified to feature a centrally mounted chronograph hand that measured minutes rather than seconds (hence its “slow-motion” moniker), while the latest addition to the Superocean series is a traditional three-piece. Needle Watches. Regardless of case size or metal choice, all new Breitling Superocean Automatic models are powered by the Calibre 17, a version of the brand’s reliable and ubiquitous ETA 2824-2. Like most movements featuring this famous ETA design, the Breitling Calibre 17 runs at 28,800vph and offers users a fairly standard 38-hour power reserve. With this in mind, while the Breitling Cal. 17 is used to drive the many different models in the brand’s current production range, the version fitted to the new Superocean Automatic watch is the dateless variant, as all new models offer a symmetrical time-only display.

In terms of dial colors and strap options, the new Breitling SuperOcean Automatic is available in a variety of different colors, with a choice of rubber straps or three-link metal bracelets. Both the strap and bracelet options feature a folding clasp with 15mm of fine adjustment, allowing it to slip over the sleeves of hazmat suits and wetsuits. With this in mind, not all options are available for every different case size and material option. For example, dial colors include black, blue, green, turquoise, brown, silver, white and orange. However, you’ll only find an orange dial on the smallest 36mm model, and on the limited edition of the 42mm Superocean Automatic, made in collaboration with professional surfer Kelly Slater, it features A green rubber strap pays homage to the watch that my late father used to wear when he was growing up and learning to surf. Likewise, the bronze model is only available with a rubber strap, while the two-tone model is only produced in 42mm, with the option of a black dial and bezel.

While much of Breitling’s heritage is associated with pilots’ watches and the world of aviation, its Superocean diver’s Online fake watch collection has been around since 1957 and offers a variety of unique designs that Breitling has increasingly sought inspiration in recent years. The new Breitling Superocean Automatic takes the unique aesthetic of the original slow-motion diving chronograph and reimagines it in a practical and versatile form, with enough colors, materials and case sizes to suit everyone’s personal taste and preferences.
