The Bentley Motors chronograph cultivates originality, but permeated by an eminently British sense of refinement and moderation. The gaze is immediately struck by the knurled finishing on the bezel, inspired by the Bentley control buttons. The case is distinguished by its imposing diameter. Breitling has combined this original design with an exclusive technical touch. The Bentley Motors chronograph features a unique mechanism known as the “30-second” type chronograph. The center hand sweeps once around the dial in half a minute instead of the customary 60 seconds, an astonishing configuration that enables extremely accurate read-off to within 1/8th of a second.
This distinctive feature is part of Calibre 25B, a movement stemming from the Breitling Chronométrie workshops and which is officially chronometer-certified, as indeed are all Breitling movements. In tribute to the automobile world, the Bentley Motors is equipped with another world exclusive feature, the “variable tachometer”, which enables one to measure average speed, regardless of the time elapsed, the distance covered or the speed reached.
THE STUFF OF A CHAMPION
Breitling and Bentley have both made their names in manufacturing the highest performing, most prestigious mechanical machines on the planet. With the Breitling Bentley series of watches, the two companies honor that tradition of excellence by offering superior quality and ultimately stylish timepieces. This alluring collection is made for men, with motorists especially in mind.
AN ART OF LIVING
British chic, Swiss excellence: the Breitling for Bentley collection has asserted a new art of living. Symbolized by the winged B, it carves out its own path, reflecting an exclusive universe where luxury and accomplishment converge. Performance and prestige. Power and style. Class and boldness.
Born from the encounter between the grand art of British carmaking and the great Swiss watchmaking tradition, this richly endowed family of exclusive chronographs houses exceptional “engines” inside its gold, steel or titanium bodywork. Artfully designed and produced with extreme concern for details, it embodies the same momentum in the pursuit of perfection and beauty shared by the famous British automobile manufacturer and the chronograph specialist. The very same passion for performance and elegance which – from the Bentley workshops in Crewe to those of Breitling Chronométrie in La Chaux-de-Fonds – invites devotees of fine mechanisms to set off on a truly amazing journey.
Bentley caused a sensation by launching the Continental GT, the most powerful Bentley ever built. Breitling lent its personal touch to this epitome of luxury and performance by participating in the design of the technical instruments and creating the onboard clock. It was the very first time that Bentley had entrusted this task to a watchmaker.
A PASSION FOR PERFORMANCE
Built for great accomplishments, Breitling for Bentley chronographs epitomize a passion for performance. They are all equipped with movements chronometer-certified by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute), the highest distinction in the field of precision and reliability – and also the only one based on an international standard.
