Created at the height of the jet age, a period of rapid aeronautical innovation, the Concorde redefined what was possible in the sky, cutting trans-Atlantic flight times in half at twice the speed of sound and lifting passengers high enough to glimpse the curve of the Earth. Nicknamed “the White Bird” for its distinctive shape, the Concorde flew higher and faster than any commercial aircraft before or since. Cruising at 60,000 feet, it offered its roughly 100 passengers a rare view of the stratosphere's deep blue. The supersonic aircraft was a symbol of a time when the world dreamed bigger.
That notion returns in the new Navitimer Tribute to Concorde. Breitling's iconic pilot's chronograph, originally created as a tool for civil aviation, meets one of the sky's most daring achievements. The result merges two: the watch born during the golden age of air travel, and the aircraft that pushed commercial flight into the future. A modern evolution of Breitling's icon, it is designed with the Navitimer's classic hallmarks and charged with the energy of supersonic travel.
