Breitling Re-releases Miles Davis's Navitimer

 

 

 

A reboot of a punk icon in keeping with its period.

 

To memorialize Miles Davis's decades-long putting on of Navitimer watches, Breitling has released the Navitimer B09 Chronograph 41 Miles Davis watch, modeled after the ref. 806 Mk5 favored by the actual pioneering jazz musician.

 

Breitling positions this particular watch as a tribute to some distinguished musician, but its charm likely extends far past Miles Davis fans. The watch boasts an elegant design, without obvious Davis elements; the only real clue is the subtle decoration on the case back.

 

This Miles Davis special edition follows the design of Breitling's highly popular Navitimer ref. 806 reissue and the subsequent Navitimer B02 Chronograph 41 Cosmonaute, and really should be particularly appealing to enthusiasts who missed these variations or simply dislike the 24-hour format of the Cosmonaute.

The return from the Air Racer bracelet for this timepiece is a pleasant shock, as Miles Davis usually opted for a black leather-based strap with his Navitimer watches. While the style may seem somewhat mismatched, the Air Racer bracelet's design is contemporary as well as its excellent craftsmanship gives it a brand new look.

 

This particular design may not appeal to everybody, but I appreciate Breitling's willingness to experiment with such avant-garde bracelet designs, much like Zenith's retro-style trapezoidal bracelet within the El Primero collection.

 

A successful reissue. The actual Miles Davis Special Edition watch features a 41mm case, similar in size to the original 806, perfectly complementing the Navitimer's expressive dial. Compared to earlier 806 reissues, this watch brings back the much loved " twin-engine" logo and the particular reverse panda sub-dial.

 

The Mk5 model's dial abandons the Navitimer's iconic numerals and fingers, replacing them with bar hours markers (one numeral continues to be at 12 o'clock) as well as hands coated with a cream-colored Super-Luminova luminescent material. I am not usually a fan of typically the so-called " antique" impact, but in this case, it provides a subtle warmth towards the otherwise plain dial.

 

As for other variations from the original Navitimer, often the sliding rule bezel includes a black and white color scheme, omitting the red accents within the vintage original. Aside from this specific minor change, it stays a very faithful replica in the Mk5 dial.

The famous Air flow Racer bracelet has also been elevated. Originally introduced in the 1960s and also closely associated with the musician Serge Gainsbourg, this bracelet offers a unique sense of style. The cuff design is quite not the same as the integrated bracelets generally seen today, giving this kind of classic design a fresh vitality. Within re-introducing the Air Racer band, Breitling improved wearing comfort and ease by refining the joint links near the clasp. Such as the previous 806 reissue, the actual Miles Davis watch is actually powered by the B09 motion, a manual-winding version associated with Breitling's flagship chronograph movements. This function is the same to the original and helps maintain the overall thickness to 13mm. The B09 movement provides a 70-hour power reserve and, such as all Breitling movements, will be chronometer-certified.

 

Besides the limited edition of 500 stainless steel pieces, 50 models of three watches may also be available. These three watches are identical in style but are made of stainless steel, 18 CARAT yellow gold, and platinum, correspondingly. The stainless steel and platnium models feature a black and white " reverse panda" dial design and style, while the platinum model comes with a blue dial with white subdials.
