Many symbolic mechanical timepieces have taken to the skies over the years, yet Breguet and their Type XX are perhaps the most charming of the lot. Its design looks like it was ripped straight out of a 1950s cockpit, this 3800ST proudly carries its heritage on its sleeve with an abundance of quintessential Breguet characteristics. Whether it's the fluted caseband ubiquitous in their portfolio and synonymous with Breguet or the rawness of its steel bezel and remarkably legible dial, this Type XX Aeronavale is timelessly executed with that rugged steadfastness we all adore about pilots watches. Regardless, at 39.5mm, there’s still a touch of elegance and chicness, you only need to gaze at its whimsical signature typography to understand that uncompromising refinement matches its rugged and function-focused appearance.
