Breitling for Bentley Supersports Chronograph Limited Edition

Posted on by

Swiss watch brand Breitling introduces a 3 x 1,000-piece limited series of the Bentley Supersports chronograph, with a “dashboard-style” dial enlivened by blue, orange or white-ringed counters and inner bezels. Clearly built for outstanding feats and performances, this exceptional watch is a fresh tribute to the Bentley Continental Supersports, the fastest and most powerful car ever made by the British manufacturer, and holder of the world ice speed record.
Inside its sporty, sturdy and elegant chassis, the Bentley Supersports limited series houses a selfwinding chronograph movement chronometer-certified by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute). It is equipped with an original and extremely practical central-hand 60-minute counter. The rotating bezel serving to activate the variable tachometer – an exclusive Breitling feature enabling measurement of average speed whatever the time elapsed, the distance covered or the speed reached – is adorned with the knurled motif typical of Bentley dashboard controls.
