STUNNING Breitling Classic Avi Chronograph 42 mm P-51 Mustang with Black Dial on Brown Breitling Leather & Deploy Clasp! Super killer with the Black & Brown contrast. Arrives as watch only and was originally purchased from Breitling in January 2024. Have peace of mind, this piece is WARRANTIED through Breitling until January 2026!
The watch is in great condition with minor wear, nothing notable outside of some crystal wear. Keeps great time when tested on my timegrapher! Do excuse the dust/lint in the pictures from the photography process. Stunning commemoration of the P-51 Mustang and Breitling’s appreciation of aviation history!
From Breitling: “The Story”
“From brave first takeoffs to the birth of commercial air travel, Breitling’s history is inseparable from that of flight. In the 1930s, Breitling’s Huit Aviation department made its name inventing precision cockpit clocks. Two decades later, it introduced yet another novel flight instrument, this time in wearable form: the Ref. 765 AVI. That pioneering pilot’s watch provided the technical backdrop for today’s Classic AVI, a collection inspired by the rugged spirit of famed early aircraft. The Classic AVI P-51 Mustang honors one of those legends. When the aircraft was built in a mere 120 days, even its developer North American Aviation, didn’t anticipate what a powerhouse it had on its hands. The P-51’s low-drag wings and engine-cooling system—considered experimental when the single-seat fighter first took off in 1940—gave it unprecedented speed and range. The addition of a Merlin engine, expanded the plane’s performance to high altitudes, making it the best all-purpose fighter of its time. As a true pilot’s watch designed to withstand the rigors of a vintage cockpit, the Classic AVI P-51 Mustang features large, highly legible Arabic numerals on the dial and bezel. The knurled bezel on the 42mm case provides optimal grip, even in a pilot’s gloved hands. Top-stitched calfskin straps give a nod to the seams found on classic flight gear, while the stainless-steel bracelet provides an elegant alternative. Pilots and other travelers will appreciate its legibility, wearability, and understated style. The engine of the Classic AVI is the COSC-certified Breitling Caliber 23 movement, which provides approximately 48-hours of power reserve.”
