When we think of Breitling, we will link it with mens watches for professional divers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], pilots, and astronauts. This is a brand that has a track record for about 120 years and with a long standing association among many professional sports and aviation. In St-Imier, the Jura mountains of Switzerland,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Leon Breitling opens a workshop specializing in the making chronograph pocket watches and precision counters for scientific and industrial purposes.
In 1914 Leon Breitling dies and the company is passed over to his son Gaston, a year later Gaston creates the first wristwatch chronograph and subsequently provides pilots with the first wrist instruments.
Willy Breitling, the son of Gaston, took over management of the company in 1932. At this point there began one of the most successful stories in watchmaking industry. In 1936, Breitling signed the agreement with the Royal Air Force and became its official supplier. In 1942, the company extended its customers list with the American Armed Forces.
The year 1954 witnessed the invention of the Navitimer, a wrist mechanism with the famous navigation computer. This super chronograph became a favorite among pilots in the entire world. By that time,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Breitling was supplying the major international airlines with aircraft pulpit clocks. In 1962, Astronaut Scott Carpenter wore the Cosmonaute chronograph during his orbital flight on the board of the Aurora 7 space capsule.
In 1969 Breitling introduced the first self winding chronograph. This technical device was a major achievement for the entire Swiss watchmaking industry. In 1984, the Chronomat was launched,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], representing a return of the chronograph. It immediately became a best-seller among the timepieces of the Breitling collection.
In the 1990s, Breitling introduced its Emergency collection with a built-in micro transmitter targeted at the aircraft emergency industry. The followed B-1 all-round multifunctional chronograph was developed in tight cooperation with aviation professionals.
The beginning of the 21st century saw introduction of the most accurate quartz system for that time. Improving every year, SuperQuartz positioned itself as a quartz benchmark for watchmaking industry. These days, its electronic movements are the only ones able to meet the strict COSC standard requirements.
Breitling Chronometrie is still established in La Chaux-de-Fonds, the town where Leon Breitling opened his first chronograph factory 110 years ago, with a headquarter of Breitling Company in Grenchen, Switzerland that was established in 2000.
