Breitling Navitimer 1 Automatic 41mm Black Dial Black Leather Strap Watch

The Breitling Navitimer 1 Automatic 41 is where legendary aviation heritage meets modern Swiss watchmaking. Housed in a refined 41mm stainless steel case and paired with a timeless black leather strap, this watch is designed for pilots, professionals, and collectors who demand clarity, precision, and a storied design you can wear every day.

Timeless design meets pilot-ready practicality

From its black dial to the signature Navitimer bidirectional beaded bezel, this model stays true to the line’s aviation roots while delivering contemporary elegance. The slide rule bezel is not just a nod to history—it’s a functional tool that can assist with quick calculations on the go, a nod to the era when navigators relied on mechanical aids.

Precision you can trust

Powering the Navitimer 1 Automatic 41 is the Breitling Caliber 17, a self-winding movement that is COSC-certified as a chronometer. Expect reliable accuracy within -4 to +6 seconds per day, backed by a robust 28,800 vibration per hour cadence and 25 jewels. The movement offers an approximate 38-hour power reserve, so your watch stays ready between wear sessions.
