The history of this Breitling Bentley Motors
In 2002, the prestigious British car manufacturer Bentley entrusted Breitling with the design of the dashboard clock for its new Continental GT. From this exclusive partnership came the powerful Breitling for Bentley collection, whose Motors model embodies its most accomplished mechanical expression. The major historical anecdote behind this creation lies in the specific development of the 30-second chronograph. Unlike a conventional hand, the slender central seconds hand completes one full rotation of the dial in 30 seconds. This technical innovation, visually reproducing the instant surge of a rev counter pushed to its limit, ensures formidable chronometric readability. Reference A25363 therefore stands as a true link between fine watchmaking and the excellence of British grand touring.
Case, calibre and bracelet of this Bentley Motors
This sculptural piece imposes its presence through a massive stainless steel case measuring 48.8 millimetres in diameter, with water resistance tested to 100 metres. The broad bidirectional rotating bezel features a complex cross-hatched guilloché, a faithful and aesthetic reproduction of the engine-turned motif of Bentley’s emblematic grilles. Protected by a solid domed sapphire crystal treated with anti-reflective coating on both sides, the matte black dial deploys a dense and highly functional architecture. The applied metal indexes and the three recessed counters blend perfectly into the scale of a peripheral variable tachymeter. The beating heart of this timepiece is the Breitling 25B calibre, a self-winding mechanical movement bearing COSC chronometer certification. Fitted with 38 jewels and oscillating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, it delivers a solid 42-hour power reserve. The screwed caseback is enriched with a beautiful relief engraving honouring three legends of the asphalt. The ensemble is mounted on a robust polished steel bracelet with five asymmetrical links, secured by a folding clasp.
