Soon after its launch in 1952, the Navitimer chronograph became a favorite with pilots. In addition to its ability to measure short times, this wrist instrument is equipped with a "navigation computer", a circular slide rule able to handle all airborne navigation calculations, such as climbing times or fuel consumption rate, and even to convert miles to nautical miles or kilometers. This first Navitimer was officially chosen by the AOPA (Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association), encompassing pilots from around the world. Today, this model has lent its name to a line of original mechanical chronographs, featuring a wealth of exclusive technical features and naturally all fitted with the famous slide rule.

The models in the Windrider line have inherited their unique styling from the Chronomat, the unrivalled leader within the BREITLING collection. This self-winding chronograph, developed in conjunction with the Frecce Tricolori, the elite flight team of the Italian air force - was endowed from the outset with a series of original technical and aesthetic features that were to give it an immediately recognizable style. While the rider-tab rotating bezel is a common denominator within the Windrider line, each model also meets above average reliability criteria and is given a finish that is impeccable right down to the slightest detail.
