Collection: Breitling Navitimer Men’s Watches

What the Navitimer is known for

Navitimer is among Breitling's most recognisable designs. The classic chronograph versions have a circular slide rule around the dial, a feature originally useful to pilots for calculations. That gives the watch its detailed appearance, although not every Navitimer reference has the same dial arrangement. Some models are much simpler than the familiar multi subdial chronograph.

Choose the movement and layout first, then consider the case size. The busy dial may be exactly what attracts you, but make sure it is comfortable to read at a glance. Compare the bracelet or strap and check the thickness, particularly if you plan to wear it with a shirt cuff. If you prefer Breitling's aviation history without quite so much dial detail, another collection may suit you.

For a bolder, more utilitarian look, compare Avenger.
