About this watch
This watch should need no introduction, I give you the first Breitling Chronograph Wristwatch EVER Made..DAH DAH.
"In 1915, Breitling heralded the emergence of the wrist chronograph by inventing the first independent chronograph pushpiece. In 1923, the firm perfected this system by separating the stop/start functions from that of resetting. This patented innovation thereby made it possible to add several successive times without returning the hands to zero – which proved extremely useful both for timing sports competitions and for calculating flight times."
And here is one of the very few examples left in existence and in such great form. originally it was also signed JW Benson which is just visible still.
Its such a great piece and so glad I found it so so many years ago. Last Image is the Breathing Museum Version.
