Hockey Hall of Famer Receives Breitling for Bentley Watch

Breitling recently hosted and organized an event to honor hockey legend Brett Hull for his induction into the United States Hockey Hall of Fame. For those of you who don’t know, Bret Hull is the general manger of the Dallas Stars, a job he started after retiring from hockey in 2005. Twice he scored 50 goals in 50 of his hockey games, he played on two Stanley Cup teams, he is the career leader in playoff powerplay goals, and he is 3rd in all time career goals with 741.

Breitling Cockpit Lady Watch

Branded as Breitling’s “feminine version of time” the Breitling Cockpit Lady Watch holds technical specifications that allow it to play with the big boys.  We’ve talked about this Breitling watch at the Breitling Watch Blog before, but we haven’t really gone deep into the watch’s technical background. When Breitling designed the Breitling Cockpit Lady watch for the Breitling Windrider Collection, balance was a large aspect of the planning.  Breitling wanted a women’s watch that was able to perform yet look elegant and remain reliable.  Even though they made it look easy, sometimes designing a women’s watch with all the techs of a bulky man’s watch is not easy. Every aspect of the Breitling watch screams femininity, sleekness, and variety by...

The Bentley Continental GT Has a Breitling Clock

We all want a Bentley Continental GT, the wood grain, the smell, the paint, the Bentley symbol on front, the rearview mirror, the back left tire, the license plate, the door handle… well you get what time it is.  Speaking of time, did you know that the Bentley Continental GT has a Breitling clock in it? We all know Breitling and Bentley forged a very lucrative collaboration, and now they have taken it even a step further.  The difference between this clock and other Bentley car clocks is the new logo which is applied to the clock in gold with silver plated hands.  The clock is missing one thing though, a second hand, but who needs them anyway in a car.
