Breitling releases Japan-limited model of "Navitimer" with black mother-of-pearl dial

Breitling's classic pilot's watch, the Navitimer, has released a Japan-exclusive model, the Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Black Mother-of-Pearl Japan Edition. This model is the first Navitimer chronograph to feature a mother-of-pearl dial, and can be paired with the ladies' model, the Navitimer Automatic 35.

The Navitimer, a shining symbol of aviation watches

　Among Breitling's collection, the Navitimer has been a highly popular symbol of aviation watches since its launch in 1952. It was the world's first chronograph with an aviation slide rule, allowing pilots to calculate flight distance and remaining fuel. While there are few opportunities to actually use an aviation slide rule in real life, it's a joy to know that it's not just a design, but also a pilot's watch certified as the official watch of the AOPA (Allied Pilots Association). From the original to today's models, its extremely precise functionality and style have remained unchanged.

Japan-exclusive model with an elegant mother-of-pearl dial

　The Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Black Mother of Pearl Japan Edition, available only in Japan, combines a tough pilot's watch with a mother-of-pearl dial, which requires high precision under any circumstances. This is the first time that a mother-of-pearl dial has been used for a Navitimer chronograph.

　This Japan-exclusive model is a timepiece that combines the lustrous sparkle of black mother-of-pearl with the functionality of an instrument. The words "SPECIAL EDITION" are engraved around the periphery of the 12-hour counter, indicating that this is a special model. The sapphire crystal case back allows you to view the movement, Caliber 01.

　This Japan-limited model can be paired with the mother-of-pearl dial model of the ladies' Navitimer Automatic 35, making it a perfect pair watch for you and your partner.
