Super AVI - Breitling's tribute to legendary aircraft Inspired by the spirit of early aircraft and the design of the de Havilland Mosquito Designed to withstand the rigors of a vintage cockpit Black dial framed by a knurled bezel Powered by the B023 calibre movement with 48 hours of power reserve AVIATION HERITAGE Super AVI, the newest watch series from Breitling, is a celebration of aviation history with designs inspired by four legendary aircraft. This Mosquito model draws its design inspiration from the de Havilland Mosquito, which was crafted from wood in a bid to overcome aluminium and steel shortages. Known as the Wooden Wonder, the aircraft outperformed its metal contemporaries to become one of the fastest planes built between 1940 and 1950. A true pilot's watch, the Mosquito timepiece offers optimal grip for operation by gloved hands, sizeable numerals that can be spotted with ease, and an additional hand indicating a second time zone. TAKE TO THE SKIES This 42mm Mosquito model is presented in a stainless steel case, secured with a top-stitched calfskin strap, giving a nod to the seams found on classic flight gear. Framed by a knurled bezel, the black dial presents red hands, highly legible Arabic numerals, a date display, and three white sub-dials. The Breitling B23 calibre movement provides power and precision to this exceptional timepiece, offering a 48-hour power reserve
