Breitling's lady collection just took a major step forward with the release of three new Chronomat South Sea watches.
This collection, comprising three stunning timepieces in different colorways, transports wearers to a tropical paradise of golden beaches, azure waters, vibrant flora, and lush greenery. With vibrant colors, exquisite gemstones, and meticulous craftsmanship, the Chronomat South Sea Collection is a testament to Breitling’s commitment to innovation and design in the ladies category.
For Breitling’s CEO, Georges Kern, the oceanic landscape played a major role in the design. “The Chronomat South Sea is inspired by the beauty of tropical land and seascapes. Each watch creates an ever-changing visual spectacle of light and color.” It’s this inspiration that has resulted in a collection designed with a focus on women, offering a seamless blend of effortless style and exceptional craftsmanship.
The Chronomat’s legacy itself has historical significance, signifying the resurgence of the Swiss watch industry when it was introduced in 1984. Its influence has led to countless timepieces, including dedicated women’s models over the past four decades, with recent models, such as the Superocean Heritage Pastel Paradise and the iconic Navitimer 36 and 32, becoming heroes of the ladies’ collection.
The new additions to the Chronomat South Sea Capsule Collection are offered in ice blue, green, and pink iterations, each reminiscent of the tropical paradise that served as their muse. The dials feature a harmonious blend of metallic and mother-of-pearl elements, adorned with diamond-set hour markers that glisten in the sunlight. The bezels, a standout feature of these timepieces, are set with multicolored gems, adding an extra layer of sophistication and brilliance.
The stainless steel cases are available with bezels in 18k red or white gold — elegantly sized with the industry’s “sweet spot” size of 36mm. The timepieces are fitted with a matching alligator leather strap for a touch of elegance or Breitling’s distinctive metal rouleaux bracelet for a sportier look.
At the heart of the Chronomat South Sea watches lies the Breitling Caliber 10, a COSC-certified self-winding mechanical caliber celebrated for its precision and reliability with a power reserve of approximately 42 hours and water resistance of up to 100 meters.
