Breitling - 'Navitimer Chrono-Matic 24H' - Flyback...

Welcome to my Top Swiss Chronograps Boutique! Breitling S.A. was founded in 1884 by Léon Breitling. It's known for precision-made chronometers designed for aviators. In 1952, Willy Breitling was approached by the world’s largest pilots’ club, the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), and asked to create a new chronograph for its members. His answer was the Navitimer—a wrist-worn instrument that would enable pilots to perform all necessary flight calculations, including average speed, distance traveled, fuel consumption, rate of climb or descent, and conversion of miles to kilometers or nautical miles. At that time, all these calculations required a logarithmic slide rule. To create it, Willy adapted the original logarithmic slide rule of the 1940s Chronomat for aviation purposes and integrated it into a rotating bezel, surrounded by small beads to make it easier to manipulate. At 41mm, the case was unusually large for the time, ensuring maximum legibility. Oversized Arabic numerals coated with luminescent radium provided excellent contrast against the black dial. The name “Navitimer”—a combination of “navigation” and “timer”—perfectly captured the essence of the pilot’s tool watch. The original version designed for AOPA bore no Breitling branding on the dial and was exclusively distributed to AOPA members. In late 1955, the Navitimer was released to the public with the Breitling name and a stylized winged logo distinct from the AOPA version. In the late 1960s, watch wearers had to choose between an automatic watch and a chronograph, but no one had yet found a way to put the two together. To overcome this challenge, Breitling began the ambitious and visionary development of creating one of the first automatic mechanical chronograph calibers. Developed in partnership with Heuer-Leonidas and Hamilton-Buren and Dubois-Depraz, the Breitling Chrono-matic was launched on March 3, 1969 offering two timepieces in one, a mechanical automatic watch and a chronograph—changing watchmaking history forever. For over 70 years, the Navitimer has been beloved by aviators and tastemakers in equal measure. Worn by an astronaut in space and the biggest stars on Earth, it is Breitling’s most iconic timepiece. Once a tool for charting a pilot's course, now a companion for all those plotting their personal journeys through life. The name and left-hand crown recall Breitling’s original Chrono‑Matic, launched on 3 March 1969. Its calibre 11 was developed through the partnership of Breitling, Heuer‑Leonidas, Hamilton‑Buren and Dubois‑Depraz. Breitling’s own history identifies the left-positioned crown as a defining feature of that original design. Your A22360 is a later tribute with a different movement. Breitling The 24-hour display also connects with Breitling’s spaceflight heritage: Scott Carpenter requested a 24-hour Navitimer for his Mercury‑Atlas 7 mission on 24 May 1962, so he could distinguish day from night in orbit. That is historical context for the display, rather than a claim that the A22360 itself flew in space.

Distinctive wellknown super design. Breitling travel watch box (see pics). Excellent condition, never worn: the wristwatch comes from luxury watch-shop showcase; every morning the watch was put on the stand in the shop window, every evening it was removed from the window. This action has been repeated for many years and day after day, so the case back doesn't look brand new from the inside, there are inevitable microscopic scratches. I prefer not to polish them, so as to preserve the pristine condition. However, no one has ever worn this Chrono-Matic on their wrist. The strap is replaced with a new one: leather straps often suffer from temperature in shop windows due to powerful spotlights. General professional pre-sale service was made in October 2026: the watch is keeping good time and working perfectly. My personal authenticity and quality warranty: you will get warranty card (as pictured), fully completed, stamped and signed. My impeccable seller reputation speaks for itself: look at my feedbacks and sales ratings. Insured, registered shipping worldwide with International Express service: it’s not cheap, and yet fast and reliable, two days in Europe, three days for the rest of this world. What you see is what you get. These are my own photos of the actual watch up for auction. NO EXTRA COSTS for EU Buyers! Number 154 of just 1,000 pieces, this distinctive Chrono‑Matic combines a genuine 24-hour display, an automatic flyback chronograph and Breitling’s unmistakable aviation slide rule.
