Breitling for Bentley Flying B
The latest model in the Breitling for Bentley collection is the Flying B, a new rectangular watch. The watch is done in 18K rose gold and measures an astounding 38.5mm X 57.3mm. This massive watch has a sapphire crystal, and the back is engraved with the Flying B symbol of Bentley. The movement is the automatic Breitling caliber 28b, with 38 jewels, beating at 28,800 bph and with COSC-certification as a chronometer.
The rectangular design, the first in the collection, is not the only surprising feature of the Breitling for Bentley Flying B. The watch is special for its original display mode.
The Breitling watch incorporates the jumping hour mechanism with the hour hand replaced by a disc positioned at 12 o'clock. The dial of the Breitling Flying B represents a true masterpiece of artistry and craftsmanship. It sports a wide range of original details, including the knurled motif that was suggested by Bentley instrumentation.
The hour-markers of the Breitling watch are produced from mother-of-pearl. The dial's design is based upon distinguishing interplay on reliefs and materials, underlined by a subtle color touch matching the central part as well as the jumping hour aperture. The Breitling artisans created a slightly cambered dial profile that required all their mastery and ingenuity. The curving shape of the watch's sapphire crystal was also worth considerable efforts.
At the case-back of the Breitling watch there is the legendary Bentley 'Flying B' symbol which continuously served as the timeless emblem of the prestigious Bentley automobiles. The Flying B offers the choice between a steel model, then the version crafted in a refined red gold as well as in a luxurious series of white gold pieces. The Breitling watches go on an elegant over-stitched strap or a Speed bracelet.The watch is also available in 18K gold or stainless steel and sells for around $20,000 for the gold version.
