The Story Behind the Navitimer & Boeing 747
The Navitimer debuted in 1952 as the official watch of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, earning fame for its slide-rule bezel that let aviators perform in-flight calculations. Meanwhile, Boeing’s 747 first soared in 1969, nicknamed the “Queen of the Skies” for revolutionizing mass air travel with two decks and twin aisles, carrying more passengers than any jet before it and covering 5,000+ nautical miles per flight.
When the final, 1,574th 747 rolled off the line in 2022, Breitling honored both icons with a limited edition of just 747 pieces: the Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Boeing 747.
Historical Facts & Quirky Tidbits
The Navitimer slide rule was conceived for AOPA pilots to calculate fuel consumption, climb rates, and more—no calculator needed.
The 747’s nickname nods to its 747-passenger capacity goal during development (though it never carried that many).
The Navitimer Boeing 747’s date window sits inside the 6 o’clock subdial—subtly integrated like the plane’s stubby upper deck.

Cultural Impact & Design Inspiration

With its palette lifted from the original 747, this watch bridges horology and aeronautics—perfect for jet-setters and cockpit aficionados alike.
