The Elegance of the Moment in High RPM
Breitling and Aston Martin unite engineering, speed, and legacy in a partnership born on the track and echoed on the wrist
There are encounters that do not happen by chance. They are born from the same obsession, from the same idea of perfection that accepts no shortcuts. Breitling and Aston Martin share this invisible territory where engineering becomes emotion and precision transforms into desire. When these two houses meet, the result isn’t just an object. It’s a statement about time, speed, and legacy.
To seal this union, the Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Aston Martin Formula One™ Team emerges. A watch that doesn’t limit itself to measuring minutes but carries in its lines and materials the memory of the tracks, the smell of heated asphalt, and the tense silence that precedes the start. Produced in a limited edition of only 1,959 pieces, the number pays homage to the year Aston Martin made its debut in Formula 1®, as if each timepiece held a fragment of this history in motion.
The carbon fiber dial seems to capture the essence of the AMR26 cockpit, while the Aston Martin Racing Green details appear as the chromatic signature of a universe where aesthetics and performance never part ways. For the first time, a Navitimer features a titanium case—an ultralight, highly durable material chosen not for style but out of necessity: the same logic that governs elite motorsport, where every gram matters and every decision counts.
At the heart of the piece beats the Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01, offering a 70-hour power reserve and COSC certification. It’s a mechanism designed to withstand time and the demands of high performance, as if the watch itself were a finely tuned engine built to traverse decades without missing a beat.
The cocktail at Fasano Itaim in São Paulo didn’t just celebrate a launch; it also marked a strategic milestone for the brand. Under Kern’s leadership, Breitling saw its revenues double globally and its boutique network leap from 50 to nearly 300 locations. In Brazil, the trajectory mirrors this momentum: since establishing its national subsidiary, the brand has recorded over 40% sales growth, consolidating a new chapter in its presence in the country.
The boutique at Shopping Cidade Jardim, with its retro-modern concept inspired by industrial lofts, remains a gathering point for those seeking more than products: a ‘neo-luxury’ experience where casual meets refined and where values like inclusion and sustainability are part of the conversation.

The partnership officially debuts on the track at the Australian Grand Prix, held from March 6 to 8, 2026. The Breitling logo will be emblazoned on the new AMR26—revealed to the world on February 9—as a visible seal of this alliance between time and speed.
For those who live the performance lifestyle, time has never been just a measure. Now it takes shape, weight, and purpose—and finally travels in very good company.
