Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Tribute to Concorde Limited Edition

販売店の掲載情報より

Paying tribute to the height of the Jet Age The Concorde was created at the height of the jet age, a period of rapid aeronautical innovation. It redefined what was possible in the sky, cutting trans-Atlantic flight times in half at twice the speed of sound and lifting passengers high enough to glimpse the curvature of the Earth. The supersonic aircraft was a symbol of a time when the world dreamed bigger. The Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Tribute to Concorde is expressed through a blue dial inspired by the shade of the stratosphere as seen from the plane, paired with a matching alligator strap. Contrasting white subdials and an inner slide rule reference Concorde’s nickname White Bird (“L’Oiseau Blanc”). Limited to 593 pieces, a reference to the Olympus 593 turbojet engines that powered the aircraft. The caseback is engraved with “One of 593,” “Tribute to Concorde,” “Jetliner,”
