DESCRIPTION
- Breitling for Bentley
The flying B
The wings of renown
Breitling springs a surprise by enriching the Breitling for Bentley collection with a rectangular watch featuring an original design. An eceptional timepiece dedicated to the « winged B », the historical emblem of the famous British manufacturer.
A Bentley is far more than a car : it is a work of art, crafted with infinite concern for detail. Dedicated to the most prestigious of car brands, the latest newcomer to the Breitling for Bentley collection likewise asserts itself as a luxurious and sophisticated creation. First of all through its case, endowed with cambered rectangularlines reflecting the elegance of a coupé or cabriolet model. Also trough its genrous yet elegant dimensions establishing a powerful presence on the wirst, as well as its play on angles and curves. The suprising nature of the Flying B stems not juste from this rectangular design, the first « shaped » case in the Breitling for Bentley collection. It is also distinguished by its original display mode featuring a jumping hour mechanism in wich the hour hand is replaced by a disc at 12 o’clock. Minutes are read off in a more conventional way by means of a single hand placed at the dial centre. Meanwhile, the seconds are shown on an off-centred subdial at 6 o’clock. Like all models in the Breitling for Bentley collection, the new Flying B takes to the road with an exceptional motorisarion: selfwinding Breitling Caliber 28B, officially chronometer-certified by the COSC.
The dial of the Flying B constitutes a masterpiece of artistry and craftmanship in its own right. Embodying unique know-how, it reveals a wealth of details such as the knurled motif inspired by Bentley instrumentation, and hour-markers sculpted from mother-of-pearl. Its play on reliefs and materials is enhanced by a subtle touch of colour echoed in the central part and in the jumping hour aperture. The slightly cambered dial profile required a show of considerable ingenuity by the artisans, as did the curving shape of the bevelled sapphire crystal, glareproofed both sides.
The caseback reveals the symbol that gave this exclusive timepiece its name: the legendary Bentley « Flying B » wich served for decades as the emblematic insignia of these British-made cars. An emblem reminiscent of another legendary signature, the Breitling winged B…Borne on the wings of this doubly prestigious renown, the Flying B is available in steel. It is alsoproduced in a refined red gold version as well as in a series in white gold, the height of discreet luxury. It is fitted with an elegant overstitched strap or with a Speed bracelet.
