The Frecce Tricolori loyal to the Breitling Chronomat
On October 18th, Breitling and the Frecce Tricolori met
up at the Italian air base in Rivolto to reaffirm the longstanding
partnership and to reveal a new Chronomat 44 bearing the flight team's
livery, along with a limited edition featuring the same design.
Among the many exceptional squads that are associated with
Breitling,
the
Frecce Tricolori – the Italian airforce aerobatics team – holds a
place of its own. In
1983, the brand with the winged B was chosen by the
"tricolor arrows" to design their official watch. In doing so,
Breitling worked closely with pilots in order to create an authentic
aviation chronograph. A year later, in
1984, it was based on this
ultra-functional, original and elegant watch, that the brand launched
its famous Chronomat – that has since become its star model and was
recently reinterpreted.

Almost 30 years later,
Breitling is
perpetuating these ties by creating for the
Frecce Tricolori a special
version of the
Chronomat 44 customized in the team colors. For devotees
of high-flying feats and aviation in general, the firm is also offering a
1,000-piece
limited edition with the same exclusive design. Its black
dial (like the original
1983 model) bearing silver-toned counters with
red hands is distinguished by the team logo emblazoned at 12 o'clock.

Composed of three arrows in the red, white and green colors of the
Italian flag, it is topped with the inscription "P.A.N Frecce Tricolori"
(P.A.N. standing for Pattuglia Acrobatica Nazionale). The caseback
bears the engraved silhouette of the ten Aermacchi aircraft composing
the squad. The ultrasturdy steel case and the bezel with black
rubber-incrusted numerals feature satinbrushed tops and polished sides.
