  • Catalogue Essay

    The Breitling for Bentley joined forces since 2003 when the brand unveiled the Bentley Le Mans chronograph in celebration of Team Bentley’s success in taking the 2 podium positions in the 24 Hours of Le Mans race. Paying tribute to the exceptional vehicle fantasize by car enthusiasts, the Bentley Continental GT3, the Breitling Bentley GT3 takes the core DNA of the high-performance machine and engineered it into a feature packed 49mm black titanium chronograph. Under the curved, glare-proofed crystal, the midnight black carbon fibre dial reminiscent of the car’s dashboard gleams with attraction. Fitted with a knurled designed ratcheted inner rotating bezel with a tachymeter scale sporting in racing green and red accents, the wearer can adjust and calculate speed with precision. The engine of this timepiece is the Breitling cal. 27B, a chronometer-certified movement that guarantees performance and accuracy. Extremely sporty but gracious, the present example is numbered and engraved 185 out of a limited edition of 500 pieces on the caseback with the GT3 emblem. To motorsport lovers, this powerful and aggressively suave Breitling Bentley GT3 is the perfect choice to pair with a drive in a supercar.

  • Artist Biography

    Breitling

    Swiss • 1884

    The firm started by Leon Breitling in 1884 is best known for its technical aviation and oceanic watches. Today, all models are outfitted with certified chronometer movements, used for accurate timing. Early aviation pioneers in specialized chronograph timepieces, Breitling introduced the circular slide rule to watches in the 1940s for use by pilots. The firm’s most iconic chronograph, the Navitimer, was introduced in 1954 and continues to be manufactured today. Another key model is the Duograph, a split-seconds chronograph that was Breitling's most prestigious wristwatch during the 1940s through '60s. Their watches are built on their reputation for precision and sturdiness.
