Breitling is a Swiss brand founded in Saint-Imier in 1884 by the engineer Leon Breitling. The production increased, leading the brand to also explore the field of useful tools for air navigation with the renowned Navitimer, but numerous successes were obtained especially with chronographs. Among them absolutely deserves to be mentioned the lot here: the Breitling for Bentley A4436212/C652 is equal parts motorsport tool watch and luxury timepiece and includes a stunning 48 mm case topped with a bidirectional rotating steel bezel with a slide rule and a vibrant blue dial with luminous hands and stick hour markers completed by the big date display at 12, continuous seconds at 3, and chronograph sub-dials at 6 and 9. The resilient stainless steel finish is powered by the caliber 44B automatic movement with 42 hours of power reserve with stopwatch functions.
