Breitling Launches Patrouille Suisse Chronograph

There are useful aviation features, apart from setting yourself apart as a proud aviator, that is. The second hour hand, which is used to display a second time zone, such as Zulu time, is adorned with a bright red miniature replica of a Northrop F-5E Tiger jet, the airplanes flown by the six-ship aerobatic formation team. Behind the hands lies a black dial with the flight team’s red and yellow logo in a miniature dial at the nine-o-clock position. The rotating bezel serves to provide a third 24-hour time zone reading.

The watch features Bretiling’s self-winding chronograph movement and is water resistant to 660 feet, a feature that you'll hopefully never need as a pilot. The timepiece comes with the steel pilot bracelet pictured and sells for just north of $10,000.
