The Aerospace was released within the Navitimer collection in 1985 and aimed specifically at aviators. Amidst the increase in popularity for new technology and quartz-powered movements, Breitling conceived the model as the modern interpretation of the Navitimer. In its initial iteration, the Aerospace’s light titanium case allowed the wristwatch to be thin and comfortable while the LCD display and single button action would offer great legibility and functionality to the wearer.
The present Aerospace reference 65362 is a rare version of the Aerospace, produced between 1996 and 2001. The case is made in 18ct white gold with a bi-directional rotating bezel and a matching white gold bracelet, ensuring fantastic presence on the wrist that the titanium version provides. The blue dial bears two LCD displays displaying a second time-zone, 12 and 24 hour times, an alarm and a chronograph accurate to the 100th of a second. This iteration of the Aerospace furthermore carries the B65 movement with a minute repeater complication making this rare white gold Breitling a true collectible piece.
