    Breitling Classic AVI Chronograph 42 P-51 Mustang - (Ref. R233801A1B1R1) Product Details

    From brave first takeoffs to the birth of commercial air travel, Breitling’s history is inseparable from that of flight. In the 1930’s, Breitling’s Huit Aviation department made its name inventing precision cockpit clocks. Two decades later, it introduced yet another novel flight instrument, this time in wearable form: the Ref. 765 AVI. That pioneering pilot’s watch provided the technical backdrop for today’s Classic AVI, a collection inspired by the rugged spirit of famed early aircraft. The Classic AVI P-51 Mustang honors one of those legends. When the aircraft was built in a mere 120 days, even its developer North American Aviation, didn’t anticipate what a powerhouse it had on its hands. The P-51’s low-drag wings and engine-cooling system – considered experimental when the single-seat fighter first took-off in 1940 – gave it unprecedented speed and range. The addition of a Merlin engine, expanded the plane’s performance to high altitudes, making it the best all-purpose fighter of its time. As a true pilot’s watch designed to withstand the rigors of a vintage cockpit, the Classic AVI P-51 Mustang features large, highly legible Arabic numerals on the dial and bezel. The knurled bezel on the 42mm case provides optimal grip, even in a pilot’s gloved hands. Pilots and other travelers will appreciate its legibility, wearability, and understated style. The engine of the Classic AVI is the C0SC-certified Breitling Caliber 23 movement, which provides approximately 48-hours power reserve.
