A Bentley on the road as we all know is a spectacular sight – almost as good as the sight of a Breitling on the wrist.One of the key attributes of the Bentley is its commanding prescence, this is an attribute shared with the chrongraphs from Breitling.

The link between Bentley and Breitling is interesting. Both proudly bear the names of two of the leading engineers of their day. Just as recently Breitling celebrated the fiftieth birthday of an important model, the Navitimer; Bentley marked the fiftieth anniversary of the R-Type Continental. During the 1980s and 1990s, the Bentley Turbo R revived the fortunes of Bentley; so, during the same period, did the Breitling Chronomat revitalise the lustre of the Chronograph from Grenchen. And now, just as a new generation of Bentleys is being made at a totally modernised headquarters at Crewe, so a state of the art, truly 21st century watch factory is making a thoroughly modern watch for Breitling. Even the logos of the brands are uncannily similar.

With the watch that it has made for Bentley, Breitling has delighted in heightening the interplay between curvature of the dial and the uncompromisingly linear, almost chiselled edges of the case. The result is an arresting timepiece that echoes some of the finishing on the instrumentation of the new Bentley Continental GT.
This is a not a Bentley watch but a special edition Breitling made for Bentley and says as much on the handsome dial. Moreover, Bentley has drawn upon Breitling’s heritage as a maker of in-cockpit instrumentation for aeroplanes, with the result that the Breitling signature is to be found on the Bentley’s dashboard clock as well as on its driver’s wrist.

So what is it about the Superocean Breitling or should I say “Queen Of The Seas” that men seem to like so much. Well as Breitling have been producing the Superocean since 1957 there have been several changes to the various models over the years. The first model was guaranteed water resistant to a depth of 200 metres which at the time was an exceptional technical feat. The Superocean soon built up a loyal following of diving enthusiasts and went on to produce models that were guaranteed to depths of 500, 1500, and even 2000 metres.

So it could be the technical qualities and functionality that people admire so much.
However it is estimated that as few as 5% of Superoceans are sold to divers so it is more likey to be the stunning looks of the watch which are available with a blue, coral or black dial and a professional steel bracelet. These watches are not small and you definitely know that you have a quality watch on your wrist.

If you want to know what it feels like to wear one of these classics just have a look at the examples below.

They typically have a large face (e.g. the Breitling for Bentley Motors edition has a 48 mm Case Diameter) for better visibility and to allow display of more information on the analog dials. Many other models feature an automatic winding mechanism that is purely mechanical (i.e. using no electronic components). A lot of Breitling watches are equipped with additional functions such as the flyback function, split-second, moon phase, date display and other complications.

All Breitling watches are manufactured in Switzerland and are made from Swiss components. Quartz models such as the Breitling Aeromarine Colt start at $1,650.00, while typical prices of mechanical, steel cased models are $7,300 (US) for the Breitling for Bentley Motors model. The expense is clearly in the 38 jewel self-winding movement as these steel cased models are more expensive than some of Breitling’s Titanium or Gold models. Some special edition models also include diamonds on various parts of the watch. I.E. Diamond Bezel, Diamond Bracelet, etc.

Breitling was a sponsor of Team Bentley during their Le Mans 24 Hours campaign, running from 2001-2003. To commemorate this event, Breitling created the Limited Edition Breitling Bentley 24 Le Mans Watch
