In 1884, Lyon, founder of the Ruishilaxia Defen Breitling founded the company. Initially, the company is the production of Breitling pocket watches and so on the timer, the army began in 1914 with a total production of seconds and luminous watch. In 1936, Lyon’s grandson, Willy began to aircraft cockpit instrument platform supporting production precision timer since then embarked on the production of solidarity with the aviation industry the road.
So far, Boeing, Douglas and Lockheed and other large aircraft manufacturers are all Breitling users. For many years experience in the aviation industry watch, so Breitling products have a significant feature of its extreme focus on function-oriented watches, its products continue to meet the aviation, marine, navigation, diving until the special needs of the industry to give watches to practical Xing, functionality and pluralism. Thus, Breitling watch is not only a timer, but also a precision instrument, known as “Air computer” laudatory.
In 1941, Breitling completed a “sliding scale rotating disk,” Design and manufacture of, and September 30 that year has made Switzerland the first patent, No. 217,012. This invention, in order to watch brings a revolutionary breakthrough. Pilot use of this watch can not only carry out simple multiplication and division operations, the public and imperial conversion, etc., but can calculate the closed off and landing aircraft, the speed and time.
In 1952 Breitling introduced a well-known table. In addition to timing, but also can assist pilots shipping preparation, checking flight plans, calculation speed, and to calculate the fuel consumption. After years of improved, Breitling has become a big family table, in the performance constantly to keep up with the development of the aviation industry, to the early 60s, has to meet the targets at supersonic conditions, the compliance rate. May 24, 1962, the table with the U.S. Secretary of Kotka Ponte astronauts conducted a second orbit around the Earth.
Pursuit of excellence “Emergency”
Breitling’s bold spirit and tabulation process to explore new ideas, in 1988 with the introduction of the “Emergency” models get a concentrated expression. The table at the end of the table with a miniature waterproof transmitter at -20 ? ~ -100 ? temperature range can the frequency of 121.5 cents He sent two times per minute, pulse signal, firing range of up to about 160 km, continuous working time of up to 20 ~ 28 days. This design allows “Emergency” can be widely used in aviation, submarine sea, mountain climbing, adventure activities such as emergency relief, so that rescue personnel can promptly identify the location of the object in distress. This is another major breakthrough in watch functions. When this table when it was exhibited at the Expo Marcel immediately attracted acclaim watch industry peers.
Breitling table in the long-term function of development, formed the “Navitimer”, “Chronliner”, “Nightflight”, “Professional” 4 series, each series has a distinctive adaptation object is related to professional companion.
A quartz clock on the application of technology for the Breitling has injected new vitality. The development of deep-water operations in 1985, dedicated table, can withstand the pressure of 1,000 meters water depth, safety factor 10 times higher than ordinary table. The table on time, heart rate, one-way for divers to stop time by lap, and with a newly developed anti-explosion of nitrogen pressure patent cases in the decompression will be the accumulation of nitrogen release sheet to prevent water penetration in the table. The success of the series, the Breitling territory of the table extended to underwater from the air.
