Breitling changes gears and goes into F1 via Aston Martin. My Hot Take.

Breitling swaps the skies for the racetrack with the new Aston Martin F1 Navitimer. Is a 1952 slide rule relevant in a 2026 Formula 1 car? I explore this titanium and carbon-fiber paradox, debunking the "pilot's watch" myth with history from legends like Jim Clark. We’ll break down the controversial specs, the $16k price tag, and why this "neo-luxury" pivot might actually be brilliant. Join a self-confessed Breitling fan for an honest critique of a watch that shouldn't work—but absolutely does. For your awareness some things about me and the channel. I'm an engineer who's into human behavior, loves the ideas behind art and sees watches as a mix of science, craft, art, business, history, technology, philosophy, and psychology. As a result, my videos cover all that ground. (Oh, and I overthink everything). In my opinion a $15 Casio or a $50 G-Shock are probably the only real tool watches and pretty much everything else is jewelry. So as we are talking about jewelry I think style is substance and I tend to believe history, brand, style, design, execution, and aesthetics are more important than specs. A dull design with a good movement is a dull watch, and an exciting design with an average movement is an exciting watch. To be clear, I hate the expression "it's just a watch". If you got this far, watches matter to you and represent a bridge between us - dismissing them as unimportant seems wrong and disrespectful. That doesn't mean we can't and don't have fun, it just means we should not be totally mindless of others. I'm a watch collector and curator - I like my collections to have a theme. My collection has several themes: 1. Alpina watches (mainly vintage but some modern) 2. Travel watches (GMT. UTC, world timers, home times, dual times) 3. Breitlings (modern and 60s-70's era) 4. Stuff I just really like - pricey, and 5. Stuff I really like - affordable. You'll notice I focus on brands and branding - thats deliberate. Just as I cant/wont separate an artist from their art I cant/wont separate a brand from their product. I strive to be right but I will make mistakes. I strive to be authentic - that means sometimes I will be biased. I'll generally try and flag when I know something reflects my personal tastes or ideals but again I wont get it right every time.
