More information
In the 1950s, Breitling unveiled the iconic Breitling 765 AVI. What immediately sets the Breitling 765 AVI apart is its unique 15-minute counter positioned at three o'clock—a feature tailored to the needs of jet aviation. This counter was essential for timing the warm-up procedures, ensuring the safe operation of complex aircraft. The generous 41mm case size, notably substantial for its era, ensured optimal legibility, a vital factor for pilots.
