Bentley and Breitling's Latest Timepiece Celebrates the GT Mulliner Convertible
Limited to 1,000 examples.
Continuing with their longstanding partnership, Swiss luxury watchmaker Breitling‘s latest release is a Premier B01 Chronograph 42 celebrating Bentley‘s custom coach making division, Mulliner.
The watch itself is inspired by the Continental GT Mulliner Convertible, a roofless grand tourer which is heralded by the brand as its most luxurious GT ever made. Paying homage to Bentley’s automotive prowess, the 42mm stainless steel watch carries a chronograph function via an in-house Breitling 01 movement, with two pushers framing an autographed crown, paired with two contrasting subdials at the 3 and 9 o’clock positions. A deep blue tachymeter sits on an internal outer bezel, while a minutes track painted in red graces the inner part of the luxurious silver dial. Completing the look is a blue alligator leather strap, no doubt an homage to the GT’s Imperial Blue leather upholstery.
For those interested, the Breitling Premier B01 Chronograph 42 Bentley Mulliner Limited Edition is now available, setting you back $8,650 USD. Only 1,000 examples have been made, so head on over to the watchmaker’s website to learn more now.
Elsewhere in watches, Swatch has released a Q-inspired timepiece in celebration of the upcoming James Bond film.
