Breitling: A Legacy of Innovation and Precision

Breitling’s roots can be traced back to 1884 when Léon Breitling embarked on a journey to create timepieces that were elegant, reliable, and stylish. Breitling’s original pocket watches became an instant success. The next challenge? Chronographs.

In 1889, Breitling designed a pared-down chronograph model featuring a striking design and easy-to-maintain mechanism.

Gaston, Léon’s son, took the reins in 1914 and displayed the same fervor and passion for innovation as his father. In 1915, he launched one of the world's first wrist chronographs with a separate push-piece above the crown.

Breitling’s early innovations set a precedent for technical marvels to come during the entire 20th century. Today, the brand stands proud as a designer with a rich history and knack for creating luxury timepieces that drive us into the future.
