Breitling have just launched a commemorative Swiss made Breitling replica watches to celebrate the 25th anniversary of one of the Swiss Luxury watch brand’s most remarkable feats of engineering.
25 years ago in the small municipality of Château-d’Oex, roughly 120 kilometres northeast of Geneva, Swiss luxury watchmakers Breitling made history when the Breitling Orbiter 3 set off for a historic flight around the world.
Powered only by hot air and helium, the Breitling balloon was piloted by balloonists Bertrand Piccard and Brian Jones, who set out to complete the first nonstop balloon flight around the world; a feat that had been attempted 21 times by 11 different teams, yet none had been successful.
Over the next 19 days, the Breitling Orbiter 3 would travel a staggering distance of 45,633 kilometres eastward, crossing continents at perilous heights and withstanding transient weather conditions to maintain a safe and stable altitude throughout the journey.
The two men eventually landed the balloon in the Egyptian desert, shattering records and defying expectations to become the first men to successfully circumnavigate the globe nonstop in a balloon. Now, 25 years later, Breitling is returning to honour one of the brand’s incredible milestones with AAA UK fake Breitling special edition Orbiter release watches.
Presented in a 43mm diameter, the perfect replica Breitling Aerospace B70 Orbiter watches is a commemorative anniversary release reminiscent of the historic balloon to which it owes its name.
It features a bright orange dial and each limited release carries with it a unique piece of history: a segment of the original Breitling Orbiter 3 balloon that is visible through the cheap Breitling copy watches’ transparent caseback which serves as an exquisite shrine to one of the greatest aviation feats of the 20th century.
On the dial, the high quality replica Breitling Aerospace B70 Orbiter watches boasts a bright-orange dial inspired by the Orbiter 3 capsule, whilst the numerals, indices and hands have each been treated with the Super-LumiNova® for heightened legibility, even at the most daring of heights.
Under the hood, the piece is powered by Breitling’s Manufacture Caliber B70, a COSC-certified SuperQuartz™ movement that is ten times more accurate than standard quartz, which boasts an expected battery life of two years – although Breitling have said their Breitling super clone watches for men last a lifetime.
“Since the birth of aviation, Breitling has been there for all those who looked to the sky and dared to dream,” says Breitling CEO Georges Kern.
“As we honour the pioneering spirit of the Orbiter 3 mission, we reaffirm our commitment to being at the forefront of aviation’s future. The skies have no limit, and neither do we.”
The luxury replica Breitling Aerospace B70 Orbiter watches launched in 2024 and is available for just $6,490 AUD. It’s a modest sum for a unique piece of aviation history.
