- 1.A Dialogue Between Vintage Hands and Modern Materials
It is there,at the intersection of 60s nostalgia and modern engineering,that Breitling’s “Aloha State of Mind” campaign was born.
- 2.A Comprehensive Leap from the In-House B31 to the Flagship 01 Movement
The campaign is based on the renewed Superocean Heritage line,where every detail has been precisely tuned.The biggest reference to the past is the triumphant return of the original hands in the form of replicas and arrows,which have been preserved on the 1957 model and enhance the modern retro feel.Technically,breitling replica is taking a key step forward.The automatic three hand models (in sizes 40,42 and 44 mm) are now powered by the new in house caliber B31.The 42 mm chronograph goes even further,being equipped with the brand’s flagship,the Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01,known for its 70 hour powercolumnwheel.All these movements are certified as chronometers by the COSC,which guarantees impeccable accuracy.To this we add a bezel made of high tech,scratch resistant ceramic and a solid water resistance of 200 meters.The result is a replica watch that is both true to its diving heritage and charged with the best of modern watchmaking.
