Why choose this watch?

Since its release 70 years ago, there have been many versions of Breitling's iconic pilot's watch. This new Navitimer model has many classic features complemented with modern sophistication: A slim profile, shiny yet subtle metal elements, contrasting colours of the dial. And if there is one detail that evokes nostalgia, it is the return of the AOPA wings to their original position at 12 o'clock.

The story – Breitling’s iconic pilot’s chronograph – for the journey. In 1952, Willy Breitling developed a wrist-worn chronograph with a circular slide rule that would allow pilots to perform all necessary flight calculations. Two years later, the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) announced the design as its official timepiece. The “navigation timer” – or Navitimer – was born. The AOPA was (and remains) the largest pilots’ club in the world, counting nearly every US aviator among its ranks. As the defacto pilot’s watch throughout the glory days of civil aviation, the Navitimer was worn by airline captains and aircraft enthusiasts. It even made its way into space on the wrist of astronaut Scott Carpenter in 1962. And it wasn’t only pilots drawn to the watch’s irrepressible aesthetic. Celebrities of the day such as Miles Davis and Serge Gainsbourg were devotees, proving that the Navitimer had style as well as function. There have been many iterations of Breitling’s icon since its debut 70 years ago, but this new Navitimer captures its most classic features, while enhancing them with modern refinements. A flattened slide rule and a domed crystal create the illusion of a sleeker profile. Alternating polished and brushed metal elements give a lustrous, yet understated finish. Most notably, new colors in shades of blue, green and copper, define the updated dial options. And if there is one update sure to spark nostalgia, it’s the return of the AOPA wings to their original position at 12 o’clock. For 70 years, Breitling’s original pilot’s watch has been beloved by aviators and tastemakers in equal measure. Worn by astronauts in space and the biggest stars on earth, it is Breitling’s most iconic timepiece and one of the most recognizable watches of all time.

I love this extraordinary watch more than ever. Thanks to the easy-to-change leather, rubber and textile straps, this timepiece is extremely versatile and looks sporty, even elegant. The titanium case, which is very light, is also sensational.

 

The HUBLOT brand fascinates me because of its incredible creative spirit when it comes to materials, such as Magic Gold, Texalium, synthetic sapphire, SAXEM or ceramics in various colours. In addition, HUBLOT designs a variety of ingenious models together with renowned artists, which makes the brand even more exclusive.

My favourite watch is the Blancpain Villeret Quantième Complet. It is actually a men’s model, but I think the watch with 40 mm diameter looks breathtakingly beautiful on a woman, too. The classic complete calendar with Blancpain’s signature moon phase looks stunning with its simple elegance. Each function on the complete calendar can be adjusted individually using the practically invisible under-lug correctors.

Founded in 1735, Blancpain is the oldest watch brand in the world. The Villeret models have barely been aesthetically altered since the early days of Blancpain, yet they still look very contemporary. They have become a timeless classic that is a dependable accessory for generations.

For me, this watch fulfils all the criteria that a watch has to fulfil. Its refined design radiates sporty elegance. The case and the stainless steel bracelet tenderly embrace my wrist. Every time I want to read the time, the sparkling diamonds on the bezel make my heart beat faster. The beautifully designed dial with its rose gold hour markers lets me combine the watch ideally with any piece of jewellery, and the open watch back lets me enjoy the fascinating finesse of the movement.

 

The Piaget brand fascinates me for its 145-year family history, its rarity and the timeless elegance that is reflected in the entire watch collection.
