Breitling was founded in the Swiss Jura in 1884 by Léon Breitling, creating scientific chronographs and timers. In 1934 Breitling patented the breakthrough chronograph with a second pusher at 4 o’clock which resets the chronograph to zero, this innovation would lead to the development of chronograph wristwatch we know today.
The brand became extremely popular with aviators and large orders from the British Airforce were to follow, supplying chronograph instruments for airplane dashboards. The brand has become synonymous with revolutionary technology to conquer the skies.
