Breitling Jupiter and Jupiter Pilot A brief history to aid identification and dating 1980 The 'Jupiter' was introduced in 1980 by Breitling in the year following the take-over of the company by Mr Ernest Schneider. Along with the closely related 'Mars' and 'Pluton' chronographs, the Jupiter was designed for military pilots but also with an eye on the civilian aviation market. There were various bezel options and differences between the three models but the movements and therefore the functions are identical. At this time, all Breitling pilot's watches were considered part of the 'Navitimer' range and the Jupiter was named 'NAVITIMER QUARTZ 2300' on the dial. It has a non-ratcheted combination bezel comprising a circular slide-rule (Type 52 derived from the Navitimer ref 806) and a wind-rose (compass degrees) scale.

Between the these two scales are flight levels in two colours for VFR/IFR and East/West flight separation. The dial has a white Breitling wings logo, the design of which was heavily influenced by the logo of the AOPA (Aircraft Owners and Pilots' Association).

The model reference 80390 is stamped into the case back. Jupiter ref 80970, circa 1983- Jupiter ref 80970 case back The Jupiter has a Swiss made ESA Y2 900231 7-jewel analogue/LCD movement Please Note: Some owners have suggested that great care must be taken when removing or fitting a battery to the ESA Y2 900231 to avoid any shorting or incorrect polarity or contact and that this can lead to irreparable damage to the movement. Unfortunately, at the time of writing (2005), the movement is no longer available and being quartz with LCD is very often impossible to repair if faulty. There has been a report of an owner sucessfully having an ESA Y2 900911 movement fitted to his watch without any problems or change in functionality but this movement too is now obsolete. During the early to mid-1980s the Jupiter was produced for middle-eastern air forces. The Algerian Air Force version has the AAF wings, 'ALGERIAN AIR FORCE' and 'BREITLING NAVITIMER' on the dial. The Iranian military version has the usual Breitling wings with a Farsi (Persian language) inscription. Free Fila Brazillia A Touch Of Cloth Rar Programs.
