Its pluralistic nature is expressed through a play on shapes and materials. Careful attention to detail and accurate operations shape a look that is as sporty as it is elegant. The vitality and sensuality of its lines reveal a singular aesthetic featuring a circular dial with an original font, housed in a square case with softened edges.

Designed by Philippe Delhotal, Creative Director of Hermès Horloger, the Hermès H08 watch mingles texture and minerality, deep hues and colourful touches, uncluttered and geometrical lines, along with a matt or shiny appearance. This recent signature is now enriched by a model combining gold and titanium.

Crafted in a sturdy and light alloy, the cushion-shaped case of the Hermès H08 watch is composed of a black DLC-treated titanium case-back topped by a rose gold case middle. This play on opposites is enhanced by a black ceramic bezel and crown.

Alternating satin-brushed and polished finishes, this two-tone case highlights the depth of the blackened, finely grained dial against which luminescent golden hands and Arabic numerals stand out in perfect clarity. The central minutes disc and the seconds hand are treated in black nickel, while the date appears in a cushion-shaped aperture between 4 and 5 o’clock.

This legible and beautifully balanced display is driven by the Manufacture Hermès H1837 mechanical self-winding movement. A strap in black and anthracite fabric webbing or black rubber with a titanium DLC folding clasp underscores the elegance of this new model.

 IN TRIBUTE TO THE ORIGINAL JUMBO JET, BREITLING INTRODUCES THE NAVITIMER B01 CHRONOGRAPH 43 BOEING 747

As the last of the mighty 747 airliners rolls off the Boeing production line, Breitling is launching a limited-edition Navitimer celebrating the legendary jet that revolutionized air travel.

It was known as the “Queen of the Skies.” From the moment it first taxied onto the runway in 1969, the Boeing 747 was destined to change the face of air travel. The original jumbo jet, it had two aisles and two decks, could carry double the passengers of the next-largest jetliner and fly more than 5000 nautical miles.

The Boeing 747 went on to revolutionize commercial aviation, putting long-haul flights within reach of a new generation of air travellers and connecting the world like never before.

Now, as Boeing gets set to deliver the last 747, Breitling is commemorating the game-changing aircraft with a special-edition Navitimer, limited to 747 pieces.

“What better way to remember a revolutionary jumbo jet than with a revolutionary pilot’s chronograph,” says Breitling CEO Georges Kern. “The Boeing 747 brought style to the skies, just as the Navitimer brought the spirit of aviation to style-savvy watch enthusiasts.”

The Navitimer, developed by Breitling in 1952, was originally conceived for the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA). It would go on to become the de facto pilot’s watch throughout the golden age of civil aviation, with its defining circular slide rule that could perform all in-flight calculations.

ODE TO AN AIRCRAFT LEGEND

The new Navitimer Boeing 747 features the AOPA logo at 12 o’clock, representing its heritage as a pilot’s chronograph. The colors on the dial echo the palette found on the original Boeing 747, captured in its cream dial with black subdials and red-and-white slide rule with blue accents.

The “Boeing 747” name is subtly integrated into the slide rule’s inner scale. The watch also features an integrated date window at 6 o’clock. It is available on a black alligator leather strap or seven-row metal bracelet.

The open caseback reveals the exceptional Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01. This movement offers approximately 70 hours of power reserve and is backed by a five-year warranty.

The caseback contains the special engravings “One of 747” and the phrase “The Original Jumbo Jet” – a poignant tribute to an aircraft that, over more than a half century of service, opened the skies and changed the way we travel.
