Blackbird Red Strike Limited Edition Presented By Breitling

Fitted with the famous black dial that inspired its name, the Blackbird cleverly combines readability with originality. It radiates a distinctive personality for people who love powerful designs. Breitling is now offering it in a new limited edition featuring vivid red accents that accentuate the technical and sporting nature of this exceptional model which brings a complete instrument panel to the wrist.

The totalizer rims, the chronograph central seconds hand and the tachometric scale on the inner bezel are all red, as is the outsized calendar display at 12 o’clock with two separate indicators for the tens and units.
