Breitling for Bentley introduces Supersports B55 connected chronograph

Bentley and Breitling are introducing a striking new chronograph - the Breitling for Bentley Supersports B55 - to celebrate the launch of the new Continental Supersports, the fastest Continental ever made. The Bentley Supersports B55 features a new version of Breitling's in-house B55 connected calibre, which is enriched with functions tailor-made for performance-minded individuals.

In addition to the lap timer and electronic tachymeter, the B55 features three additional exclusive functions. The Chrono Rally setting can record up to 30 rally stages, complete with the departure date, start time and duration of each stage, as well as intermediate times for each stage while automatically adding in any penalties incurred. Chrono Race mode is designed for track races and enables the wearer to record split times for each lap and calculate the average lap speed.

Finally, the Regularity Rally function (useful in competitions in which the objective is to cover a given distance in a specified time) enables the wearer to predefine target times (or intermediate times) from the total, and then check at the press of a button whether these goals are being achieved. The connected chronograph features two ultra-legible LCD screens equipped with a backlighting system that can be activated by pressing the crown or by simply tilting the wrist. Only 500 pieces of the Bentley Supersports B55 will be produced.
