Breitling have launched a special timepiece in celebration of its long-standing partnership with the Watches of Switzerland Group, limited to 150 pieces (100 UK and 50 US), the exclusive has been designed in collaboration and available exclusively at Goldsmiths, Mappin & Webb, Watches of Switzerland and Mayors (US). The Breitling Premier Special Edition combines purpose with style, delivering quality, performance, and timeless design in a distinct new colour combination, with the Watches of Switzerland Group logo inscribed onto the transparent case back. The exclusive new Premier is a chronograph with a commitment to everyday elegance, worthy of the legacies of both companies.

The Breitling Premier dates back to the 1940s, when the original timepieces were highly regarded as powerful fashion statements combining elegance and performance. Today the Premier endures as one of Breitling’s core collections and a symbol of the brand’s history. The launch of the Premier B01 Chronograph 42, the Watches of Switzerland Group’s Exclusive Special Edition, takes this association to history even further, celebrating the long-standing partnership between Breitling and the Watches of Switzerland Group. The two brands are joined in their pursuit of excellence, a value now embodied in an exclusive timepiece.

Breitling has built its reputation on its great chronograph watches, and the new Premier continues this tradition. Designed for individuals of action, purpose and style, the 42-millimetre watch features a striking, clean silver dial with contrasting blue sub dials – a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock and a small-second sub dial at 9 o’clock. The dial also features a white tachymeter scale on a blue inner bezel around the dial, enhanced by a blue alligator leather strap. The timepiece is equipped with the Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01, visible through the transparent caseback and inscribed with the Watches of Switzerland Group logo, a globally renowned mark of excellence and precision. Developed in-house and recognised as one of the finest watch movements in the world, the self-winding COSC-certified chronograph carries a power reserve of 70 hours.
