first wrist chronograph<\/a> with two pushers – which is the archetypal image of modern chronographs today. <\/p>\n\n\n\nBefore this innovation, chronographs operated with a single pusher. Breitling filed this patent in 1934, and by the 1940s, we can see clearly through these ads that this was the predominant configuration that almost the entire industry would adopt going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
