It’s Throwback Thursday over on Instagram, and we thought we’d take the celebrations online this week by checking in with a Breitling model spotted during this year’s Baselworld. Presented next to the Breitling Emergency II and the Breitling Transocean Chronograph 1915, the latest Breitling Navitimer 01 reminds us that bigger is better.
Created by Breitling in 1952, the original Navitimer was designed as a ‘wrist instrument’ especially built for pilots and other aviation professionals. The latest XL look, introduced last year, lends an enhanced presence on the wrist and accentuates the originality of its design, yet at the same time optimizing its readability.
