News: Breitling Navitimer B03 Chronograph Rattrapante 45
Since its development in 1952, the Breitling Navitimer has been one of the world’s most admired chronographs, and, with some recent additions to the family, Breitling has been introducing this watchmaking leg end to a whole new generation of enthusiasts around the world. The Navitimer is arguably the most iconic of all Breitling wristwatches. This twentieth century classic remains popular in the twentyfirst century, more than 65 years after it was first launched to meet the needs of a growing commercial and recreational aviation market. Thanks to the circular slide rule that was capable of performing a range of calculations relevant to aviation, the Navitimer was adopted by pilots and especially favored by the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association —AOPA. Instantly recognizable, this time less chronograph’s design is as appealing today as it was when it was introduced.
News: Presenting New Montblanc 1858 Split Second Chronograph Limited Edition
Like on the original timepiece from Minerva from which it takes its inspiration, the new Montblanc 1858 Split Second Chronograph features a telemeter scale that runs around the dial, which was a typical feature on the legendary Minerva chronographs. A telemeter makes it possible to measure the distance of a phenomenon which is both visible and audible, like the lightning and thunder in a storm. The chronograph hand starts at the instant the phenomenon is seen —for instance lightning— and then it is stopped when the sound is heard —thunder. The position on the scale shows at first glance the distance in kilometers separating the phenomenon from the user from the storm, in this particular example.
