Overview
Chronomat Story reveals how this Breitling chronograph, released in the 1980s, revived the brand and revolutionized mechanical watchmaking, thanks to previously unseen archives and firsthand accounts. A definitive look at innovation and reinvention.
Part of Watchprint’s Story Books series profiling the world’s most renowned watches, Chronomat Story sees investigative journalist Gerard Tubb draw on original research to reveal the full, untold history behind Breitling’s most transformative chronograph. Through newly uncovered archives and first-hand accounts, Tubb traces how the Chronomat - created for Italy’s elite Frecce Tricolori aerobatic team in the 1980s - sparked Breitling’s revival and reshaped the landscape of modern mechanical watchmaking. Richly illustrated and meticulously documented, the book brings to light the people, ideas, and risks that defined an era of reinvention.
