The new timepieces, dubbed by Breitling the ?ultimate athleisure watch,? are a pair of fresh-faced chronographs produced in partnership with the extreme racing series, Ironman, best known for its super-difficult triathlons. They follow up on the 2020 refresh of the Endurance Pro series, and also represent Breitling’s second collaborative piece with Ironman since the first limited edition was unveiled in 2019.
Both watches measure 44 mm in diameter and 12.5 mm thick; one has a red fumé dial and matching strap, the other is all-black with gold accents. Their cases are produced from ?Breitlight,? which is a novel polymer material Breitling claims is ?3.3 times lighter than titanium and 5.8 times lighter than steel,? but harder and with significant resistance to ?scratches, traction, and corrosion.? On the right side, two small, red-accented pushers control the chronograph function...
