Breitling Super AVI B04 Chronograph GMT 46 Mosquito Watch
Breitling Watch Super AVI B04 Chronograph GMT 46 Mosquito YB04451A1B1A1. From brave first takeoffs to the birth of commercial air travel, Breitlingâs history is inseparable from that of flight. In the 1930s, Breitlingâs 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 pilotâs watch provided the technical backdrop for todayâs Super AVI, a collection inspired by the rugged spirit of famed early aircraft. TheâŻSuper AVI MosquitoâŻhonours one of those legends. In an era when aluminium and steel shortages were common, the engineers behind the de Havilland Mosquito made use of a still plentiful material: wood. The âWooden Wonderâ caused shockwaves when it outperformed its metal contemporaries to become one of the fastest planes built between 1940 and 1950. Its superior manoeuvrability allowed it to multitask in roles as far ranging as light bomber, night-fighter, transport and photographic reconnaissance aircraft. As a true pilotâs watch designed to withstand the rigors of a vintage cockpit, the Super AVI Mosquito features large, highly legible Arabic numerals on the dial and bezel. The oversized crown and knurled bezel on its sturdy 46mm case provide optimal grip, even in a pilotâs gloved hands. Top-stitched calfskin straps give a nod to the seams found onâŻclassic flight gear, while the optional stainless-steel bracelet provides an elegant alternative. Pilots and other travelers will appreciate the ability to track a second time zone using the 24-hour markingâŻon the inner bezel and the red-tipped GMT hand. The engine of the Super AVI is the COSC-certified Breitling Manufacture Caliber B04âŻmovement, which provides approximately 70-hours of power reserve.
