Description
Breitling's strong heritage in flight dates back to the 1930s, when the Huit Aviation department created cockpit clocks. Their groundbreaking Ref. 765 AVI was the first pilot's watch, inspiring the Classic AVI collection. The Curtiss P-40 Warhawk, a top-performing aircraft from 1938, is honoured in the Classic AVI Curtiss P-40 Warhawk. Noted for its iconic nose art, the Warhawk is renowned for its durability in harsh conditions. The 42mm Classic AVI showcases legible Arabic numerals, knurled bezel, and snug calfskin straps, while a stainless steel bracelet imparts sophisticated flair. An official COSC-certified Breitling Calibre 23 movement ensures accurate timekeeping and a 48-hour power reserve.
