Breitling
Breitling was founded in 1884 by Léon Breitling. He diligently developed wristwatch chronographs in his workshop. When Léon Breitling died in 1914, his son Gaston Breitling took over the management of the family business. He had inherited the pioneering spirit, the feeling for innovation and the passion for chronographs from his father. Due to their robustness and variety of features, Breitling watches are often the first choice of pilots. Breitling embodies performance, innovation and audacity, and faces all challenges on land, sea and in the air. The brand’s most important collections include the Navitimer, Chronomat and Superocean.
