Newest addition to the Avenger collection, even more technical, functional and sophisticated
(Dubai, UAE. 17 July 2014) Luxury Swiss watch brand and chronograph specialist, Breitling has announced the arrival of a newcomer to its popular Avenger line, the new Avenger Blackbird. Arriving in Breitling Boutiques and stores across the UAE this month, the new timepiece is perfectly poised to become a companion for adventurers with features to suit the most extreme missions.
With its imposing diameter, its light and sturdy case, its ultra-readable dial and its all- black look, the new Avenger Blackbird by Breitling vividly illustrates the watchword of the entire collection: power in action.
Mohammed A. Seddiqi, Senior Vice President of sales and retail at Ahmed Seddiqi and Sons said: “The Avenger by Breitling models have been designed to offer maximum security and reliability, maximum sturdiness and shock-resistance, with a robust construction and its substantial lateral reinforcements. This is a timepiece for those who enjoy an active lifestyle that edges towards the more extreme.”
Reflecting Breitling’s core offering, the new Avenger Blackbird displays all the qualities of an instrument for professionals. The
generous 48 mm case features a slimmer and ever more ergonomic profile, extended by inward curving lugs. Wrist comfort is enhanced by the light feel of the titanium and a military-style fabric strap. The ultra-resistant carbon-based treatment reinforces the technical, powerful and sophisticated style, while eliminating any bothersome glare in the heat of action.
The oversized hands and hour-markers ensure optimal legibility in all circumstances, including in the dark thanks to the luminescent coating that stands out clearly against the black background.
The large screw-locked crown with non-slip grip guarantees maximum functionality, while its protective guards accentuate the robustness of the construction that is water-resistant to 300 meters (1,000 ft). The new face of daring feats, the Avenger Blackbird by Breitling is powered by a self-winding movement chronometer-certified by the COSC – the highest official benchmark in terms of precision and reliability.
