Breitling for Bentley GMT Chronograph

Breitling, which is best known for its aviation heritage, is cooperating with the British luxury car maker Bentley for the last three years. First presented at the 2006 international motor show in Geneva, all Breitling for Bentley watches feature bezels decorated with a unique pattern.

Just like the rest of the family, the Breitling for Bentley GMT Chronograph comes powered by a COSC-certified chronometer automatic movement hidden inside a huge round case. Being 49mm in diameter, this is perhaps the largest member of the clan.

Although the watch takes a great deal of a normal wrist’s real estate, the space is used well allowing for a greater legibility and making its chronograph a truly usable feature. By the way, the watch comes equipped with Breitling’s trademark 30-second chronograph with a central second hand performing one revolution in just 30 second increasing the chronograph’s accuracy to impressive 1/8th of a second.

Like most GMT watches, this one also features a second hour hand with a 24-hour scale and a rotating inner bezel with the names of 24 cities. The second hour hand can be moved forward in one-hour increments with a push of a button located on the left side of the body.

Breitling for Bentley GMT Chronograph will be sold with the traditional Speed bracelet made either of steel or gold (depending on the watch’s case material) and will have an extra strap made of black rubber.
