Breitling watches are acknowledged as fine watches that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The latest in their range is the Flying B – Breitling for Bentley. Bentley automobiles are one of the ultimate luxury cars and considered collectible by connoisseurs worldwide. Add to it, the watch collector’s fanatasy – the Breitling Flying B wrist watch that is the culmination of art and ingenuity in an unusual design.

Breitling watches’ Flying B is a rectangular watch and gets its name from the Bentley’s winged B logo. The wrist watch itself has a complication in the form of a jumping mechanism where instead of the hour hand, there’s a disc at 12 o’clock. These wrist watches have a self winding Breitling Caliber 28B movement with 38 jewels. The chronometer is endorsed by the COSC. Another variation from the 18K gold is the stainless steel version that is less expensive. Then there is the refined red gold model for those who like a little color in their collectable. Breitling watches come with a cool speed bracelet or an elegant overstitched strap.

This Breitling watch is considered a breakaway from its conventional design in terms of its shape. Made in 18K rose gold, the case measures a unique
38.5mm X 57.3mm. It has a sapphire crystal with its back engraved with the Flying B Bentley symbol.

The Flying B Breitling watches represent fine workmanship that is artistic and original. The knurled motif on the watch is a result of the Bentley influence. The hour is read by markers made of mother of pearl. The overall design of the watch is an intriguing combination of materials used in the making of the watch and color.

The minutes are more conventionally read. A single hand is placed in the center of the watch face and an off center sub dial at 6 o’clock shows you the seconds. At 100 meters, the Breitling watch is water resistant.

Breitling watches are suitable as formal dress watches as well as casual wear for the fashion and style conscious. The oversized Flying B designer watch is quite distinctive on the wrist of the wearer and is totally in sync with the beautiful Bentley. For those caught up with the watch collecting hobby, Breitling watches are among the favorite watch brands, going by the reviews on high profile websites and forums.
