Breitling first launched its Aerospace watch back in 1985. Now in its 30th year, Breitling this week unveiled the latest addition to the line, the Aerospace Evo Night Mission electronic chronograph. To be more accurate, it was first shown off at Baselworld 2015 but the company formally announced it this week.
The latest interpretation of a legendary model, this electronic multifunction chronograph in satin-brushed titanium displays a powerful, dynamic and technical style. It is distinguished by its particularly simple and logical control system. Simply rotating, pressing or pulling out the crown is enough to operate the entire set of functions that are useful to pilots. The Aerospace Evo also features an extremely effective and NVG-compatible display backlighting system.
