A History of World Travel

Breitling has been a brand that has supported the world time philosophy since its introduction of the very first Unitime model in the 1950s. An innovative watch that can be easily changed and read to display any time in the world, this is a watch that supports adventure and exploration at its very core.

The Breitling Transocean Unitime is so called because it is a watch that is universal, wherever you are in the world and however often that changes you will always be able to keep up with your new Breitling Unitime on your wrist. The time changing function of the Unitime operates with two rotatable discs, one indicating 24 hours and the other featuring the names of 24 major cities from the different time zones. The user simply has to pull out the crown to easily change the time zone which simultaneously adjusts the hour hand; during all of this, the second and minute hands function as normal, as does the chronometer.

This functional and durable model features the precision that Breitling has become well known for with a chronometer that is accurate to 1/4th of a second. It also incorporates the handsome Breitling aesthetic that makes these watches so popular. The case is available in steel or rose gold and the choice of straps available includes leather, steel and mesh.

The first Unitime was created by Breitling watches to celebrate the growing industry of high speed aviation as commercial travel became popular all over the world. This model stays true to the tradition with of the first Unitime aesthetically but it also excels the earlier models with all of the benefits of modern day mechanisms and the latest horological technology.
