Zurich, November 29, 2018 – Breitling has announced the release of two limited-edition watches to celebrate its partnership with Swiss International Air Lines. Since 2016, Breitling has been the official onboard timekeeper for the airline, with a presence on every SWISS flight.
To celebrate its partnership with Swiss International Air Lines, Breitling has introduced two exclusive timepieces: the Navitimer Aviator 8 B01 SWISS Limited Edition and the Navitimer Aviator 8 Automatic SWISS Limited Edition.
Georges Kern, Breitling’s CEO, explains that the partnership is built around the companies’ Swiss roots and shared heritage: “Swiss International Air Lines and Breitling are united by a passion for aviation, as well as by their steadfast commitment to quality and precision. They are among the brands that perfectly represent Switzerland around the world.”
“Our close partnership with Breitling is based on a common understanding of premium quality and the values we share in Switzerland. I am delighted that, following the successful launch of the first two watches, we are now able to offer our guests another two limited-edition masterpieces, available exclusively on board our aircraft,” says Markus Binkert, Chief Commercial Officer of SWISS.
The watches are part of the Breitling Navitimer 8 collection, which was launched successfully earlier this year.
