That pioneering pilot’s watch is the design reference for today’s Breitling Super AVI, a collection inspired by the rugged spirit of four legendary vintage aircraft: the North American Aviation P-51 Mustang, Vought F4U Corsair, de Havilland Mosquito and Curtiss P-40 Warhawk.
As a true pilot’s watch designed to stand up to the rigours of a vintage cockpit, the Breitling Super AVI P-51 Mustang features large, highly legible Arabic numerals on the dial and bezel. Its sturdy case measures 46mm and the oversized crown sits at 3 o’clock. Knurled bezels provide optimal grip and top-stitched calfskin straps give a nod to the seams found on classic flight gear. Pilots and other travellers will appreciate the ability to track a second time zone using the 24-hour marking on the inner bezel and the red-tipped GMT hand. The engine of the Breitling Super AVI is the COSC-certified Breitling Manufacture Caliber B04 movement, which provides approximately 70-hours of power reserve.
