The characteristic Breitling watch is much larger than the standard face, in part to display the many functions available on most of them. The large face provides better visibility, of course but it is obvious that most of these functions would not be used in day-to-day living conditions. The watch itself has become a luxury status symbol and is widely copied and marketed in the replica market. The primary intent in the production of the watch was as a tool used by aviators. These watches contain features, which might prove helpful to people in this occupation. 
Other models have an automatic winding mechanism, which has no electronic components. Additional features found in many Breitling watches are a date display, moon phase, split second and the flyback function. 
The manufacturing of all Breitling watches is done in the city of La Chaux-de-Fonds where so many other products related to Swiss watches are produced. Breitling’s history goes back to 1884, but the product most associated with the Breitling is more properly classified as a wristwatch chronograph. The instrument was popular with pilots from the beginning. By 1936, Breitling was named the official supplier for the Royal Air Force. The Chronomat, produced in 1942 contained a circular slide rule. 
The expansion of the brand to the U.S. military and the creation of the Navitimer in 1954 containing the first navigation computer made the watch the hands on favorite by pilots from that time forward. Astronaut Scott Carpenter was wearing a Breitling Cosmonaught chronograph during his Aurora 7 orbital flight. 1969 saw the introduction by Breitling of the world’s first self-winding chronograph, which revolutionized the entire Swiss watch industry. In 1984 Breitling reintroduced the Chronomat, which became Breitling’s best selling model, a position it retains today. Another popular model, the Aerospace was launched in 1985. 
The Breitling Emergency version has been credited with the life saving feature of a radio transmitter broadcasting on the distress frequency of 121.5 MHz. This feature can be used as a ELT-type beacon. For military use, the Breitling can be equipped with a transmitter which broadcasts on the military frequency. After 2009, the Satellite system will no longer the frequency, although the signal was never strong enough to receive signals from the miniaturized transmitter. 
Two British pilots activated their Breitling Emergency watches transmitters after their helicopter crashed in Antarctic waters. They were successfully rescued by pilots homing in on their transmitter signals. 
Those who do not hold a pilot’s license can own the Breitling Emergency only by signing an agreement which states they will bear all costs of a rescue mission should their emergency beacon be accidentally triggered. 
Breitling manufactures both quartz models such as the Aeromarine Colt and mechanical steel cased models such as the Breitling Bentley Motors model featuring a 38 jewel self-winding movement which is priced at over 00. There are also Breitling models in titanium and gold, although they are somewhat less expensive than those with the self-winding movement.

Breitling SuperOcean Heritage Chronograph Limited Edition 125th Anniversary diving watchBreitling will soon start selling its new limited edition SuperOcean Heritage Chronograph 125th Anniversary diving watch first presented about three months ago.Breitling SuperOcean has long been an arch-rival of a similarly styled Omega Planet Ocean series of diving watches. Both models look better when worn with a business suit. Both feature similarly styled arrow-shaped hour hands and almost identical unidirectional rotating bezels. Even the general layout of the dial is almost the same (well, this one is simple: 3/4 of all dressy diving watches present on the market use the legendary Rolex Sea-Dweller and Submariner as an infinite source of inspiration.)The only serious difference among the two chronometers is that this new Breitling bases its Caliber 23 movement on the time-proven Valjoux 7753 (it also ticks inside the recently introduced Panerai Luminor Chrono Daylight 44 mm Titanium Blue Dial (ref. PAM00326) chronograph watch, which has so impressed me that I’ve seen it in a dream last night) while the Omega Planet Ocean stays loyal to the original Valjoux 7750 chronograph movement. Both movements seem to be equally reliable and offer comparable levels of accuracy.However, with all these visual similarities, the new Breitling SuperOcean Heritage Chronograph Limited Edition 125th Anniversary model somehow looks better than the Omega’s job. Perhaps, the reason is that, with its sword-shaped minute hand, the watch sports more balanced appearance and provides better legibility.Also, there is something menacing about those hands. While Omega’s designers clearly overdid it trying to make them more ‘exquisite’, SuperOcean’s hour hand looks like a point of an arrow, and the minute hand looks like a blade of a heavy sword.Oh, where was I?This particular Breitling SuperOcean Heritage Chronograph Limited Edition 125th Anniversary diving watch will soon be selling in three new colors of its dial (Volcano black; Silver; Stratus Blue Gun) and two variations of strap: you can get it with either stainless steel bracelet featuring mesh pattern or, preferably, with a black rubber strap.Each color variation is planned to be produced in 1000 pieces and, according to some rumors, will be officially priced at whooping $6000 USD. Well, you can always get one in an on-line shop with a nice discount, although Breitling clearly frowns upon this practice.
