Summary

  • Breitling unveils new limited-edition Chronomat watches with Erling Haaland
  • Two models (GMT 40, B01 42) feature unique meteorite dials
  • A super-exclusive “ONE OF 5” edition exists, all with Haaland’s personal touches

Breitling has unveiled a new collaboration with Manchester City striker Erling Haaland, introducing two limited-edition Chronomat timepieces that fuse cosmic materials with athletic precision.

The collection features two main limited-edition models. The Chronomat Automatic GMT 40 is presented in stainless steel with a platinum bezel, limited to 500 pieces. The Chronomat B01 42, on the other hand, ramps up the luxury appeal with an 18k red gold case and is limited to just 250 examples. Both models feature dials crafted from Muonionalusta meteorite — an ancient astral material formed over 4.5 billion years ago. Each dial is uniquely patterned, making every watch one of a kind.

Haaland was deeply involved in the design process, from selecting the Chronomat as the base model to choosing the cosmic dial and case metals. He stated, “I wanted something one of a kind. The Chronomat just clicked. It’s clean, all metal, or with a rubber strap — it lets you go bold with the dial. The meteorite makes each one different. You’re never going to see the same watch on someone else’s wrist.”

Breitling CEO Georges Kern emphasized the perfect synergy between Haaland’s playing style and the watch’s material, remarking, “Erling plays like he’s from another planet, so when we talked about materials, a meteorite dial was the perfect fit. It’s a watch as powerful and singular as he is.” The Chronomat Automatic GMT 40 Erling Haaland features a meteorite dial set in a stainless-steel case with a platinum bezel, accented by a red-gold GMT hand and Haaland’s initials on the central seconds hand.

The caseback is engraved with “ONE OF 500” and “ERLING HAALAND 9” surrounding a silhouette of Haaland in his signature goal-celebration pose. This model offers a choice between a classic steel rouleaux bracelet or a black rouleaux-style rubber strap. The Chronomat B01 42 Erling Haaland elevates the design with an 18k red gold case, meteorite dial and black chronograph subdials. Inside, the Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01, offering a 70-hour power reserve, is visible through a sapphire-crystal caseback engraved with “ONE OF 250” and Haaland’s number 9. It also includes Haaland’s initials on the central chronograph seconds hand and is offered on either black rubber or 18k red-gold rouleaux.

Completing the collection is a third, ultra-rare “ONE OF 5” edition, exclusively crafted for Haaland and his closest circle, making this a deeply personal project for the athlete. Boasting an 18k red gold case with a meteorite dial, this edition sports a transparent caseback that offers a peek into the Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01 movement inside. It features bespoke case-side engraving of his name and jersey number, along with an image of Haaland in his goal-celebration pose on the caseback.

All models come in a wooden box, completed with a signed thank-you note from Haaland, underscoring the personal nature of the collaboration. “There are several details on the watch that I like very much,” Haaland tells Hypebeast, “aside from the uniqueness of the dial, my eyes sparkled the moment I saw my initials on the seconds hand,” –  a detail that only ownsers of the timepiece can truly savor and appreciate.
