The Mix Elegance and Sorts of Breitling Watch
The "G. Leon Breitling" firm was founded in Saint-Imia, Switzerland in 1884 by Leon Breitling. He opened a workshop specializing in making chronographs and precision counters for scientific and industrial purposes. Since the first Breitling Watch was manufactured over a hundred years ago, the legacy and tradition of quality timepieces has continued on.
In 1915 Breitling developed their first wristwatch chronograph and went on to make several significant developments in this area. In 1923 they were the first watch manufacturer to introduce an independent push piece for the chronograph, enabling the start and return-to-zero function (previously performed by the winding-crown). Then in1934 Breitling added a second push piece to the chronograph enabling either cumulative or incremental time recording. These developments made the Breitling watch a favorite amongst pilots.
In 1936 Breitling was chosen to supply the Royal Air Force with time keeping equipment. In the 40's Breitling became the US Air Force official pilots watch whilst also supplying the American armed forces. By the 50's Breitling had cemented their position in the aviation industry and was supplying cockpit clocks for most of the international airlines.
Over the years, Breitling launched a number of classic watches. 1942 saw the launch of the Chronomat, the first chronograph to be fitted with a circular slide rule. In 1952, the Breitling Navitimer Watch was launched, a wrist watch equipped with a so called "navigation computer" that allowed pilots to calculate flight plans. This watch became an instant favorite amongst pilots. In 1962, the Cosmonaut was released providing a 24 hour chronograph. This watch was worn by Scott Carpenter when he flew America's second ever manned orbital flight in the Aurora 7. In 1969, Breitling was part of a consortium of watch manufacturers that developed the first automatic chronograph, a major break through at the time.
Today, Breitling continues its involvement in aviation and all the adventures that it entails. The "Breitling World Cup of Aerobatics" was introduced in 1993 and is recognized by the Federation Aeronatique International as having the same status as a world championship. Breitling also had enormous success with the Breitling Orbiter 3, the first balloon to fly around the world. In the year 2000, Breitling inaugurated its new headquarters in Grenchen.
