2021 Breitling x Bentley Limited Edition collection

Bentley Motors and watchmaker Breitling are collaborating to produce an exclusive series of just 25 pieces, the Premier B21 Chronograph Tourbillon 42 Bentley Limited Edition.  The timepiece draws inspiration from Willy Breitling, the grandson of the brand’s founder Léon Breitling, a passionate Bentley driver who designed the original Premier wristwatches in the 1940s.

The Premier B21 Chronograph Tourbillon 42 Bentley Limited Edition is a reinterpretation of the original Breitling Premier wristwatches of the 1940s.  The watch features a 42 mm case in 18 k red gold, rectangular chronograph pushers, a gold-brown alligator strap, and a transparent sapphire caseback revealing the movement with its 22-karat gold oscillating weight. The highlight is the special chronograph tourbillon caliber and cage seen through the distinctive green dial. 

The limited edition watch is powered by the Manufacture Caliber B21, the COSC-certified tourbillon movement offers around 55 hours of power reserve and is water-resistant up to 100 meters.
