Its name sets the tone: with the Avenger Hurricane, Breitling is launching a new chronograph that pushes all existing boundaries in terms of instruments for professionals.

Extreme power, with a 50 mm XXL diameter, a sturdy construction equipped with lateral protective reinforcements and an all-black look enhanced by yellow accents and aviation-inspired stencil-type numerals.

Extreme performance, through the innovative use of Breitlight®, a world-first achievement on a watch case. 3.3 times lighter than titanium and 5.8 times lighter than steel, but significantly harder, this exclusive high-tech material boasts a number of qualities: exceptional resistance to scratches, traction and corrosion, anti-magnetic, thermal stability, anti-allergic properties – as well as a touch that is warmer than metal and a slightly mottled effect accentuating the originality of the design.

Extreme reliability thanks to the new Manufacture Breitling Caliber B12, a selfwinding chronograph with a 24-hour display as is customary in the military and among pilots, and chronometer-certified by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute), a token of superior precision.

ROMANCING THE STONE

Sliding a 40-pound "stone" down a narrow channel of ice and aiming to be centimetre-perfect takes skill, tactical savvy and precision timing. And with all players in a team helping guide the shot to its target, known as the "house", curling is the ultimate team sport on ice - and one of the world’s oldest, with the forerunner of the modern game dating back to the 1500s in Scotland.

Teamwork and precision are also vital components of top-class watchmaking, which is why boutique Swiss watchmaker Edox is proud to be the official timekeeper of the sport’s governing body, the World Curling Federation.
