40's Breitling Aviators Chronograph
Pricerange: €€
A remarkable and historically significant early Breitling aviator’s chronograph, dating from the early 1940s! Estimated around 1943 when it was equipped with the then brandnew Landeron 39 calibre. This calibre was almost exclusively used by Breitling and only for a few years, making this a rare combination! (As of mid/end 40’s Breitling started using more and more Venus calibres)
This exceptional piece captures the essence of Breitling’s pioneering chronograph era and its close connection to aviation.
Historical Background
In 1932, a 19-year-old Willy Breitling took over his grandfather’s company and led it into a new age of innovation. Breitling was already known for its precision chronographs—essential tools for aviators and engineers—but Willy’s ambition soon transformed the industry.
He secured a patent for the two-pusher chronograph, transferring the reset function from the crown to a separate pusher at 4 o’clock—an invention that remains the modern chronograph standard. Under his leadership, Breitling advanced into professional and military-grade instruments through the creation of the Huit Aviation Department, which supplied cockpit watches to the British Royal Air Force.
By the late 1930s, Breitling was producing highly legible aviator chronographs with white & black dials, luminous numerals, and rotating bezels—foundations of the designs that would by the 1950’s inspire the iconic Chronomat and Navitimer.
