Breguet Type XX Chronographe Flyback

The Breguet Type XX Chronographe represents the pinnacle of aviation watchmaking heritage, tracing its lineage to the legendary military chronographs supplied to the French Air Force and Naval Aviation in the 1950s. This modern 42mm interpretation honors the civilian Type XX models from that golden era while incorporating cutting-edge technology. The black dial features oversized Arabic numerals and triangular markers coated with ivory-toned luminescent material, creating a vintage aesthetic that's both functional and nostalgic. The enlarged 15-minute counter at 3 o'clock pays homage to the original military requirement for timing short aerial missions, while the 12-hour totalizer at 6 o'clock and running seconds at 9 o'clock complete the practical layout. Powering this aviation icon is the brand-new Calibre 728, Breguet's latest automatic flyback chronograph movement featuring a column wheel and vertical clutch system. The bidirectional rotating bezel with graduated markings offers additional timing functionality, while the fluted case sides provide secure grip even with flight gloves. The sapphire caseback reveals the finely finished movement, showcasing Breguet's commitment to haute horlogerie even in their tool watches. Our offering is in superb condition and comes with it's original box, but somewhat regrettably - no papers. Covered by our limited warranty of 1 year, starting on the date of purchase.
