In recent days, Swiss International Air Lines and Breitling have jointly launched a cool aviation chronograph watch, which is inspired by the shape of an airplane! This is not only a watch, but also a tribute to flight safety. The design of the second hand is eye-catching. Don’t you want to know what other unique features this limited edition watch has?

Watch design details

Recently, Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS) and Breitling jointly launched a limited edition aviation chronograph watch to celebrate the smooth delivery of the Airbus A350 passenger aircraft. The dial design of this watch is very clever, and it is inspired by the shape of an airplane. We all know that time control is crucial to flight safety when taking off and landing. Airlines usually set up a large clock in the cabin so that passengers and crew can keep track of the time. The second hand shape of this watch is a tribute to the aircraft-shaped moment.

In addition, the back of the watch is made of sapphire, which is very beautiful. We all know that the engine of the Airbus A350 has a very unique appearance, almost a rounded hemisphere, and the inspiration for the back of this watch comes from this. Although many high-end watches on the market like to use sapphire as the watch mirror, Breitling is probably the first watch to use sapphire on the back.

This watch is limited to 350 pieces. The back of each watch is engraved with the Swiss Air logo and the words “One of 350”, which is very collectible.

The commemorative meaning of the watch

Since 2016, Breitling has become the official partner of Swiss International Air Lines (SWISS). Both parties will launch a limited edition watch every year to commemorate the cooperation between the two parties in the aviation industry. The new watches launched this year not only celebrate the delivery of the Airbus A350 passenger aircraft, but also further consolidate Breitling’s brand image as the official partner of Swiss Airlines.

As the world’s top luxury brand, Breitling causes quite a stir every time it launches a new product. This newly released watch is the largest aviation chronograph series watch. I believe many watch enthusiasts and collectors can’t wait. Although it is still unclear what the specific configuration of this watch is, judging from the watches launched by Swiss Airlines and Breitling in the past, this newly released watch will definitely not disappoint everyone.

It is worth mentioning that passengers who purchase this watch will also receive a certificate of authenticity signed by the Swiss Air captain. This certificate is undoubtedly the best added value for enthusiasts and collectors. Even if the certificate of authenticity signed by the captain is not mentioned here, the value-added space it will bring as time goes by in the future is also expected.

Watch color scheme

The price of this watch is 8,350 Swiss francs (approximately RMB 59,000), which has reached the level of top luxury goods in terms of price. But for Swiss Air passengers, this watch is obviously more attractive, because it is not only a timekeeping tool, but also a rare travel souvenir. From December 1, this watch will be available to passengers taking long-haul flights with Swiss Air. This may be the sixth aviation chronograph series watch created by Breitling specifically for Swiss Airlines.

In terms of color matching, this watch makes full use of the “SWISS Senses” cabin color scheme, which includes four colors: black, brown, beige and burgundy. This is also the first time Breitling has used this color scheme in a watch, which is very exciting.

Conclusion

This watch is not only ingenious and unique in design, but also a symbol of the deep cooperative relationship between Breitling and SWISS. For those who love watches, it is undoubtedly an honor to own such a limited edition watch. Do you think this watch is worth buying? Come to the comment area to chat about your views!
