Breitling Transocean Chronograph 1461
The Breitling Transocean Chronograph 1461 is at home on all continents
With the Breitling Transocean Chronograph 1461, the Swiss watch manufacturer offers the perfect combination of a chronograph and a four-year calendar. This function is what makes this extraordinary watch so special. The calendar is designed in such a way that the date only needs to be reset after leap years. There are exactly 1,461 days between each correction.
Historical name
The name of the Breitling Transocean Chronograph 1461 also reflects the spirit of an entire era. The 1950s are still considered the heyday of transcontinental flights. In 2010, around half a century later, the company from Grenchen, Switzerland, reintroduced the historic Transocean model to its watch catalog. The design of the Breitling Transocean Chronograph 1461 consciously points back to the past. The style of the 1950s deliberately shapes the new model. This gives the travel chronograph a special kind of timelessness.
Complex caliber
The caliber of the watch impresses with its complexity. It is composed of almost 450 different components. The in-house caliber was designed, developed and assembled entirely in Breitling's workshops. The large number of individual parts is required so that the different functions of the travel clock can be reliably carried out. These functions include the quarter-second as well as 30 minutes and 12 hours. The mechanical caliber was certified by the Official Swiss Chronograph Control COSC. The automatic winding provides the Breitling Transocean Chronograph 1461 with a power reserve of up to 42 hours.
The complex movement is protected by a case with a diameter of 43 millimeters and a height of just over 15 millimeters. It is made of stainless steel or rose gold. Lovers of luxurious, superlative travel chronographs also have a choice when it comes to bracelets. The Breitling Transocean Chronograph 1461 is available with bracelets made of leather or braided stainless steel as well as military, a highly resistant fabric.
