COMMENT

ブライトリングのクロノグラフと言えば、<ナビタイマー>を思い浮かべる事もあるが、2カウンターの<クロノマット>はそれよりも歴史が古い。世界初の”回転計算尺”を搭載した航空時計です。そのなかでも最初期の製品がこのRef.769です。ダイアルに記されたパテントナンバー、角形のプッシャーが特徴です。ダイアルの外側と内側で仕上げの違うツートーンは美しい意匠です。

航空時計のため防水性は考慮されておらず、それ故に文字盤のダメージが多いものがほとんど。この時計は、ダイアルコンディションの良さが最大の魅力。ノンポリッシュのケースと合わせて最高評価です。動画を掲載しています。

戦後間もない頃、アメリカの飛行機野郎御用達のクロノマットファーストモデルが希少なコンディションです。

航空計算尺のパテントナンバー(217012)がダイアル中央に印字されています。機械のVENUS175はピラーホイールにキャリングアームと古典の基礎となるようなムーブメント。チラネジの付いた大きなテンワに、ブレゲヒゲを採用し高精度にも磨きがかかった名品を搭載しています。
【計算方法について】 掛け算・・・18×25 ベゼルのスケール18と内側のスケール25をベゼルを回して合わせます。12時下の赤字でHと書かれた部分に、計算の答え450が示されます。 割り算はその逆、割りたい元の数をHに合わせ、内側のスケール。 割りたい数を調べると、そこに接している外側のゲージが答えとなります。

BRAND

航空時計とは言え、軍に官給された事はなく、主にアメリカの民間パイロットが使用していた。当時は庶民には手の届かない高級品であったことでしょう。“クロノグラフのスペシャリスト”として確固たる地位を築いた<BREITLING>は、今なお世界中で愛されている名門ブランドとして発展し続けています。

COMMENT

When one thinks of Breitling chronographs, the Navitimer may come to mind, but the two-counter Chronomat predates it. It's an aviation watch equipped with the world's first "rotating slide rule." Among these, the earliest model is this Ref.769. The patent number on the dial and square pushers are distinctive features. The two-tone finish on the dial's outer and inner portions is a beautiful design detail.

As these watches were designed for aviation and not waterproofed, most tend to have dial damage. However, the standout feature of this watch is its dial condition, making it highly desirable, especially paired with its non-polished case. We have included a video for your reference.

Dating back to the post-war era, this Chronomat first model, favored by American pilots, is exceptionally rare in such pristine condition.

The patent number for the aviation slide rule (217012) is printed in the center of the dial. The VENUS175 movement, with its pillar wheel and carrier arm, forms the foundation of classical movements. It's equipped with a large, screw-regulated balance wheel and Breguet hairspring, ensuring high precision.
【Calculation Method】 Multiplication: 18×25 Align the scale of 18 on the bezel with the inner scale of 25. At the part marked "H" below 12 o'clock in red, the answer, 450, is shown. Division is the reverse, aligning the number to be divided by with "H" and checking the outer scale for the answer.

BRAND

Although it's an aviation watch, it was never issued to the military and was mainly used by civilian pilots in the United States. It must have been a luxury item out of reach for ordinary people back then. Breitling, firmly established as the "chronograph specialist," continues to evolve as a prestigious brand loved by people worldwide.
