EB70101A1O1S1
The pilot's chronograph for adventures, complete with a living piece of history.
In 1999, Bertrand Piccard and Brian Jones made history by becoming the first to fly around the world nonstop in a balloon, covering 45,633 km in 19 days, 21 hours, and 47 minutes. Their remarkable journey ended in the Egyptian desert, and now, Breitling celebrates the 25th anniversary of this incredible feat with the Aerospace B70 Orbiter watch.
This timepiece features a vibrant orange dial inspired by the colour of the capsule and embellished with the mission logo. It is available with a titanium bracelet or a black rubber strap. The titanium case, known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, holds the COSC-certified Breitling Manufacture Calibre B70. Its SuperQuartz™ movement is ten times more precise than traditional quartz and powers multiple functions such as a 1/100th of a second chronograph (with split-time and flyback capabilities), a countdown timer, a second timezone, two alarms, a lap function, and a perpetual calendar. Furthermore, each edition contains a unique piece of history: A section of the original balloon, visible through the open caseback.
