As discussed last week, Breitling launched a Breitling World Time Application with their new website design. The Breitling World Time application is a “computing instrument that measures units or currencies that easily solve time-related calculation”. Here is a detailed account of my adventures with the Breitling World Time Application.

Aviation’s Influence On Breitling
Aviation and Breitling watches are like a mother and her child, with out one, the other wouldn’t exist. Every watch designed, every chronograph tested, every screw inserted was influenced by aviation throughout their existence. Taking a look at Breitling history of watch designs cannot not be done without looking at the history of aviation. From 1884 until today, the rich influence of man in the air is not just noticable but clearly evident. In 1884 the a star was born as Leo Breitling opens his workshop specializing in chronographs and precision counters for systematic and industrial purposes only, soon that passion will be focused on consumers around the world. In 1891 German Otto Lilienthal, the father of aviation flew 50 meters in his glider. The very next...
How To Spot A Fake Breitling
In the 1980’s very good replicas and fake Breitling watches began to make their way into the market. Most of them were the Breitling Aviator and Sports divers watch, Crosswind, Navitimer, and Fighter. Unfortunately for consumers, buying a real Breitling watch can be disastrous because the fakes are actually really good. One of the best ways to spot a fake is to look at the logo. If the logo is printed, most likely it is not a real Breitling watch. However, if the logo is embossed you are one step closer to the genuine thing. Looking at the logo is only one way to spot a fake Breitling. If a Breitling is genuine the window for the date is large and will overlap into the second and the minute hands. Additionally, a genuine Breitling’s dial will always...
