Additionally, in reference to the 300 Bentley Continental GT3-R cars, the mention one of 300 is engraved on the caseback of this model.
Taking its inspiration from the race-inspired car which was developed with Bentley Motorsport and hand-crafted in Crewe, the Breitling for Bentley GT3-R Limited Edition combines sporty aesthetics with an in-house manufacture Breitling Calibre B06 “motor”.
A specialist of technical watches, Breitling has played a crucial role in the development of the wrist chronograph and is a leader in this complication. The firm has shared all the finest moments in the conquest of the skies thanks to its sturdy, reliable and high-performance instruments.

This family business is also one of the last remaining independent Swiss watch brands.
