The year 1962 was highlighted by a remarkable progress in the space exploration.
Breitling, acting as a supplier to civilian and military aviation, became greatly interested in this exciting field. The company’s specialists developed the
Cosmonaute watch, inspired by the
Navitimer chronograph.
Revealing 24 hours in a single sweep of the dial, the timepiece became a space-devoted interpretation of the Navitimer watch.

Scott Carpenter in the course of his orbital flight aboard the
Aurora 7 capsule.
