It features the new Breitling in-house super quartz movement which which is ten times more accurate than standard quartz. Designed for professionals, with a strong focus on aviators, the Cockpit B50 has a vast range of useful and innovative functions such as the chronograph with split-time and flyback capabilities, a second timezone display, a perpetual calendar, two alarms in buzzer and/or vibrate mode, a lap timer function as well as a countdown complete with alarm.
