Discover Breitling’s RAF100 Limited Edition Collection
To celebrate the centenary of our Air Force, Swiss watch brand Breitling have revealed their latest collection
Words: Gentleman's Journal
This year, the RAF celebrates 100 years of unerring bravery and service. With sky-faring adventures in Spitfires and incredible exploits in Eurofighter Typhoons, it has been a century of daring-do that the whole nation is thankful for.
Swiss watch brand Breitling has proudly partnered with the British institution to celebrate, and are using their position as Official Watch Partner to RAF100 to launch the Limited Edition RAF100 collection.
The series features the emblematic Navitimer 1 B01 Chronograph 48, released as an ultra-limited 25 piece collection, with Avenger GMT II, Aerospace and Colt Skyracer models limited to 100 pieces, respectively.
Each of the four timepieces have adopted a distinctive interpretation by the RAF, realised with the inclusion of the RAF crest on the dial. Furthermore, a donation of the sale of these watches will benefit the RAF100 Appeal.
And so, in honour of the RAF’s significant centenary milestone, Gentleman’s Journal are proud to present the official trailer for a series of short films, directed by David Gandy, depicting the past and present of the RAF, and the heroism and gallantry of its members over generations.
