A Breitling brand is one that is highly recognized in the world of luxury watches. If you are a fan of watches, you know that the Breitlings were made for aviation pilots; to help them during the flight, so the Breitling motto is “tools for professionals.”
If you know this, then you also probably know that most people today who wear Breitling watches are not pilots of any type; except perhaps for luxury pilots and status symbols. This is not so bad, and in retrospect Breitling completely took away money from those who are looking for and can afford luxury items compared to the percentage of the population who know how to fly by plane. Breitling watches received a mass press from many celebrities who also wear them; theryby "enter" them into the "Hall of Fame Clock."
Breitling primarily produces men's watches, so men mostly wear them. Celebrities such as Brad Pitt, John Travolta (also a certified pilot), Dave Chapelle, Tom Cruise and Simon Cowell are all fans and have given many Brightling collections a nice rap.
Let's take a look at the “best of breitling” by browsing the most popular collections.
The Navitimer collection was born in 1940, when the brand added a circular slide rule to the frame in order to better follow the pilots. Over the years, Navitimer has built up a solid reputation and is now known as the “world's oldest chronograph”. During the 1950s and 1960s, subcategories such as Navitimer Montbrillant and Navitmer World were released.
Navitimer Montbrillant is named after the factory where this chronograph was first made. The design is inspired and comes with a 38mm case, while Navitimer World is one of the largest Breitling watches ever produced, 10% more than Navitimer. The world of Navtimer is so called because the back cover is engraved with all the time zones of the largest cities in the world.
The Breitling for Bentley collection is an independent explanation for the collaboration between two of the most famous brands in their respective sectors: luxury watches and luxury cars. Inside this core collection are many subcategories, such as Bentley, Bentley Flying B and Bentley GMT.
The Bentley Flying B collection features a watch with rectangular cases that are designed to reflect the “elegance of a coupe or cabriolet”. The name is intended for the “winged B”, which has always been known as the Bentley “mascot” and is visible on the back of each car.
The bold design of the Bentley GMT gives a new look to the chronograph. It is equipped with several time zones, and the dial is decorated with “holder for counters”, inspired by Bentley panels.
Some of the less popular Breitling collections (including at least the general population) appear to be Aeromarine Avenger and Colt, as well as the Professional Skyracer. Since all Breitlings really are “tools for professionals”, they are more focused on the functionality of the watch and appearance, and when you first look at these collections, you will notice that the face is much smaller than the Breitlings, which have become so popular that it is the fact that the watches from the above collections are not visible throughout the city.
