Breitling Limited Edition Releases – The Chrono-Matic QP & 1461
In celebration of the 40th anniversary of the launch of the self-winding chronograph movement, Breitling is releasing two limited edition Chrono-Matic timepieces, dubbed the QP and 1461.

Breitling for Bentley Speed
The trail blazer of the Breitling for Bentley collection, the Bentley Motors Speed chronograph, radiates originality from every angle in a sporty and elegant design inspired by Bentley cars. It features peerless engineering in the 25B calibre, a worthy heir of a 1926 Breitling patent and distinguished by a unique mechanism called the 30-second chronograph. The center hand goes around the dial every 30 seconds – rather than the usual 60 – to allow for a very accurate reading to 1/8 of a second.
