It’s only fitting in our annual travel issue we close with the ultimate travel accessory: the Navitimer 01 watch from Breitling.

The Navitimer is what’s known as a tool watch — a timepiece with a particularly utilitarian purpose. In this instance the watch, which first appeared in 1952, was designed for use inside a plane’s cockpit. Equipped with a circular slide rule, the Navitimer 01 can handle all calculations relating to flight. This particular model comes in red gold and is limited to 200 pieces. $33,310, (02) 9221 7177
