Priced at $6,700, these sit above Sellita-based models as part of a strategy to funnel buyers toward Breitling while honoring vintage heritage; availability is now.
Gallet marks its 200th anniversary with a Breitling-backed relaunch featuring four collections—Flying Officer, Multichron Pilot, Multichron Sport, and Gallet Classics—each drawing on aviation, exploration and motorsport heritage while using modern movements. Core models range from 40–42mm (38mm for the Classics) with quick-release 20mm straps; calibers include Sellita-based units for the core lines and Breitling’s B09 for the Classics, delivering roughly 65–70 hours of power reserve. Prices run from about €2,400–€4,600 for the core watches, with the Classics at around €6,100. Breitling will manufacture, service, and distribute the watches, preserving Gallet’s identity within a larger infrastructure. A Field Notes video series will feature contemporary adventurers connected to the brand.
