Welcome to my Top Swiss Chronographs Boutique: Breitling S.A. was founded in 1884 by Léon Breitling. It's known for precision-made chronometers designed for aviators. The gorgeous Chrono-Matic 49 is part of proud Chronomat family. The first Chronomat had a circular slide rule and its design followed the tension of the era for military watches. The movement of the first Chronomat was the Venus 175 with 17 jewels, a manual wind movement. The Chronomat was a patented design introduced in 1940 by Willy Breitling and the world's first two-pusher chronograph wristwatch. The first model of the Chronomat collection had a circular slide rule and its design followed the appeal and design cues of the era for military watches. In the 1940s, Breitling added a circular slide rule to the bezel of its Chronomat models. This bezel became most associated with the Navitimer, launched in 1954. The Chronomat is a trademark and collection line first released in 1942 and is one of the company's best-selling models.

Distinctive design. Original Breitling watch box. General professional pre-sale service was made in March 2024: the watch is keeping good time and working perfectly. Excellent condition, never worn: the wristwatch comes from luxury watch-shop showcase; every morning the watch was put on the stand in the shop window, every evening it was removed from the window. Therefore, the strap doesn't look like brand new but no one wore the watch on their wrist, so squeamish buyers needn't worry.
