Breitling Bentley Premier Centenary Limited Edition

Launched to celebrate Bentley’s 100 years of luxury motoring excellence, the Centenary Limited Edition is the latest model to grace Breitling’s refined Premier collection. The new wristwatch commemorates the extraordinary collaboration enjoyed by Bentley Motors and Breitling since 2003.

Produced in 18k red gold and stainless steel versions, the new Premier Centenary Limited Edition offers outstanding design features. The elegant and unique wooden brown burl elm dial with black subdials (a chronograph minute counter at 3 o’clock and a small seconds subdial at 9 o’clock) is particularly eye-catching.

The contrasting subdials indicate that the watches are powered by Breitling’s flagship Manufacture Caliber 01. The in-house mechanical movement delivers an impressive power reserve of approximately 70-hours.

The movement is visible through a unique transparent caseback featuring a Bentley logo. The 18k red gold version is engraved with a “ONE OF 200” inscription while the steel version is inscribed “ONE OF 1000”, confirmation of the edition sizes for the watches. The dial features a white tachymeter scale on a black inner bezel around the dial, with a red tachymeter inscription.

The Bentley Centenary Limited Edition in 18k red gold is presented on a brown leather strap whose pattern and stitching were inspired by the seats in a Bentley. The stainless steel version will also be available on the brown Bentley-inspired leather strap or on a stainless-steel bracelet. On the left side of the 42 mm steel case is a plate with an engraved “Bentley” inscription, which owes its inspiration to the dashboard of the historic supercharged 1929 “Blower” Bentley.

Breitling Premier Chronograph 42

Breitling has built its reputation on its great chronograph watches, and the Breitling Premier Chronograph 42 models continue this proud tradition.

Their superb performance is assured by a Breitling Caliber 13 chronometer movement. The Breitling Premier Chronograph 42 features chronograph minute and hour counters at 12 and 6 o’clock, respectively, as well as a small second subdial at 9 o’clock.

The Premier Chronograph 42 features a 42-millimeter stainless-steel case and is available with either a blue or a black dial featuring a white tachymeter ring with a black scale. This stunning Premier model offers the choice of either an alligator leather or nubuck strap with white stitching or a stainless-steel bracelet.

Breitling Premier B01 Chronograph 42 Bentley British Rac­ing Green

Bentley announced the renewal of its long-standing partnership with Breitling. The partnership will see Breitling in­tegrating special Bentley editions into its core product offering rather than in a separate Breitling for Bentley collection.

The first of these extraordinary watches is the Premier B01 Chronograph 42 Bentley British Rac­ing Green. Powered by Breitling’s flagship Manufacture Caliber 01 in-house mechanical movement, which is visible through a unique transparent caseback with a metalised Bentley logo, the watch has an impressive 70-hour power reserve. These timepieces also have an engraved plate with a “Bentley” inscription. Inspi­ration for the design of the plate was taken from the dashboard of the historic supercharged 1929 “Blower” Bentley.

The watch is distinguished by its striking British racing green dial and is available with a choice of a stainless-steel bracelet or a British racing green leather strap that matches the dial. Contrasting subdials are posi­tioned at 3 and 9 o’clock, and a date window is located at 6 o’clock.

IWC Portugieser Yacht Club Chronograph

IWC Schaffhausen is launching a new edition of the Portugieser Yacht Club Chronograph as part of its "Summer Editions" collection. Thanks to its water-resistant stainless steel case with integrated crown guard and its resilient blue rubber strap, the Portugieser Yacht Club Chronograph (Ref. IW390507) is the perfect companion for your next sailing trip – or any other summer adventure you might have in mind.

The blue dial with white counters, rhodium-plated hands and the red secondhand of the chronograph produce an overall look that's deliberately casual. The 89361 manufacture calibre with flyback function indicates the measured hours and minutes together on a subdial at 12 o'clock, while the quarter-second scale that surrounds the dial allows for precise measurement of shorter time periods. The transparent case-back in sapphire crystal offersan unimpeded view of the mechanical inner workings of this sporty chronograph.

IWC is also launching a special collection of matching fabric straps, offered in fashionable blue and light grey and available in all IWC boutiques. These trendy straps are designed to accessorise selected watches from the Pilot's Watches, Portugieser and Portofino ranges and will only be available for a limited amount of time.

Porsche Design Chronograph 70Y Sportwagen PCA Edition

The Porsche Design Chronograph 70Y Sportwagen PCA Edition is special limited edition model designed only for the members of Porsche Club of America.

Each Porsche Design Chronograph 70Y Sportwagen PCA Edition, limited to 70 pieces, displays its engraved limitation number on the case back as confirmation of its exclusivity within the series. Powered by the new Porsche Design Werk 01.200, the first proprietary movement developed by the brand, this special timepiece illustrates watchmaking expertise from Porsche Design.

The highlight is its unique rotor in the shape of Porsche's iconic Fuchs forged alloy wheel. The Fuchsfelge, introduced over 50 years ago for the Porsche 911, is the most distinguished wheel for classic Porsche cars. In celebration of 70 Years of Porsche sports cars, Porsche Design received official approval to use the renowned alloy wheel shape. The spinning Fuchsfelge rotor generates power, shifting it to the Porsche Design Chronograph 70Y Sportwagen PCA Edition, just like the wheel transfers power to the car from the road. Forged perfection: now available on the wrist. 

The COSC-certified chronograph features a flyback function housed in a 42 mm titanium case with black titanium-carbide coating –– a Porsche Design classic, providing maximum contrast and readability. The flyback complication historically links with motorsports, due to its ability to measure successive lap times quickly without resetting the chronograph function.

The black carbon-fiber dial is accented with white minute-markers and guards-red flyback and stop-seconds hands. A function display at 9 o'clock illustrates the "70Y Sportwagen PCA Edition" name of the timepiece on the rotating disc to indicate the working of the movement. Contrasting Club Blau and Guards Red stitching on the black leather and Alcantara strap make this watch an instant classic. A titanium double-fold-over clasp with black titanium-carbide coating and an integrated strap-changing mechanism add to the specialization of the strap.

Each timepiece delivers in limited edition packaging, which includes a special booklet and plaque showing both logos for '70Y' Porsche and PCA. Paying tribute to 70 Years of Porsche sports cars, Porsche Design engineered this timepiece exclusively for club members, because PCA is not only one of the oldest and largest clubs in the world, but it is also one of the most devoted, uniting passionate Porsche aficionados from all across the country.

The limited edition timepiece retails for $9,911.

First Omega Wrist-Chronograph Limited Edition (2018)

The First OMEGA Wrist-Chronograph Limited Edition is an ambitious new collection comprising of just 18 watches – with each one housing an original 18’’’ CHRO calibre from 1913.

Through a special and dedicated process, the prized calibres have been delicately refurbished by the experts at Omega’s Atelier Tourbillon and given a new lease of life for use inside these new Limited Edition models.

In 1913, Omega became one of the world’s earliest producer’s of wrist-chronographs and the acclaimed 18’’’ CHRO calibre was integral to that achievement. For today’s project, the Omega Museum played a significant role in supplying the 18 original 18''' CHRO calibres, which were retrieved from heritage timepieces within their vaults.

For the outside design of the 47.5 mm timepieces, Omega has followed the look of an Omega wrist- chronograph from 1913, with classic details such as the riveted leather strap and the white enamel dial with blued “Empire” hands and hollow Arabic numerals.

Modern materials have also been included, such as 18K white gold for the case, and 18K Sedna gold for the crown and pusher. The classic design also features a hatched caseback, which can be flipped open to reveal the refurbished movement positioned behind sapphire-crystal.

TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer 01 Aston Martin (2018)

TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer 01 Aston Martin chronograph draws inspiration from Aston Martin's luxury universe.

The famous manufacture movement is visible through the dial, which is skeletonised in a hexagonal pattern that recalls the details on the new Vantage, for an exclusive Aston Martin dial. Meanwhile, the sturdy 45 mm solid steel case also presents a design that was specifically developed for this edition, which features lines on the side to evoke speed, the race track and piston. In another of the piece's exclusive features, the shape of the lugs has been revisited, taking inspiration from the lines of Aston Martin's emblematic bodywork.

With a black ceramic tachymeter bezel, this piece is the perfect reflection of the expertise and technical mastery arising from the partnership between the two brands.
