Swiss luxury watchmaker Breitling has unveiled its newest specialty timepiece, the 'Navitimer B02 Chronograph 41 Cosmonaute Limited Edition.' The striking new timepiece arrives as a celebration of one of Breitling's most historic moments -- when the brand became the first Swiss watch to make it to space via the Mercury-Atlas 7 mission.
In terms of features, the Navitimer B02 comes equipped with a 41mm case, 24-hour numerals, a chronograph, and a unique dial branded with the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association logo. In addition, the timepiece boasts a sleek platinum bezel that is powered by the brand's own in-house Manufacture Caliber B02 movement.
