It’s a curious, new, teched-up world out there, and Breitling is geared up for it.

One of the few watch brands that is not averse to electronics and technology, Breitling introduced the Exospace B55, a ‘connected chronograph’ to Singapore watch buffs last week.

Held at the brand’s Palais Renaissance store, the party was, in true Breitling fashion, loud and riotous. Meantime, the titanium-clad, SuperQuartz-powered watch proved to be an instant hit.

Over 100 guests finally caught their first glimpse of the watch that was introduced in BaselWorld 2015. Equipped with state-of-the-art connectivity, the timepiece is able to ‘communicate’ with your smartphone for alerts, as well as setting and activation of myriad flight-ready timing functions including tachymeter, various chronograph features, take-off and landing times, and more.

Priced at S$11,950, watch now is available at Breitling’s boutique and authorised retailers.
