During the 1950s the Ref 765 was updated and modelled on designs used by several watch manufacturers for l'Armée de l'Air (the French Air Force). The design was picked up by Breitling for several variations of a watch known first as the AVI and later renamed the Co-Pilot. A major change to the design of the earlier ref 765s was the addition of a turning bezel.
