Breitling Blackbird Blacksteel – Black

For Breitling, the name Blackbird traditionally refers to a special series designed on the basis of the Chronomat, the brand’s flagship model. The Blackbird is a selfwinding chronograph distinguished by the strength of its design and by its undeniable originality. Understated and powerful, it comes in two resolutely contrasting versions one with a mainly matt finish and the other with an all-polished steel finish. The same goes for the Blackbird special Pilot bracelet with its exclusive faceted profile. A third version is available in a 2,000-piece Blacksteel limited edition featuring an ultra-durable carbon-based treatment. The color of the Blackbird dial greatly contributes to its excellent readability that is further reinforced by large hands and oversized luminescent hour-markers. This pursuit of functionality goes well beyond simply reading off the time. The calendar at 12 o’clock is composed of two separate indicators, one for tens and the other for units, driven by Breitling Caliber 44, chronometer-certified by the COSC.
