Designed as a pilot's watch, this wristwatch offers the perfect blend of precision and functionality that Breitling is renowned for. Featuring a luminous gold dial paired with a solid gold band, this sophisticated timepiece embodies timeless elegance and exceptional craftsmanship.

Weighing a substantial 257 grams, this watch not only feels significant on the wrist but also represents an impressive intrinsic value. The pricing remains just slightly above the underlying gold value, making it not only a statement piece but also a wise investment.

It’s an exceptional addition to any connoisseur’s collection—don’t miss this opportunity to make it yours.
