For those who don’t know, Breitling patented the chronograph with two buttons at 2 and 4 o’clock in 1934, a solution used today by all brands for this fascinating complication. From this brilliant idea, the Premier chronographs were born a few years later, timepieces that combined both Breitling’s undoubted technical capabilities with a refined and elegant aesthetic.
