Founded in 1884, Breitling is celebrating its 140th anniversary. Throughout the year, the brand will mark the occasion with stories of its incredible firsts, from breakthroughs in timekeeping for air, land, and sea, to milestones in sustainability. It will also be a year chock full of events, exhibits, and special launches. And today, Breitling kicks off the festivities with a watch recognizing one of those momentous firsts: the Breitling Orbiter 3’s first nonstop balloon flight around the world. Celebrating this landmark on its 25th anniversary, Breitling, the sponsor of the groundbreaking voyage, unveils the Aerospace B70 Orbiter. The timepiece is a tribute to an adventure that expanded the horizons of human achievement and, best of all, each watch contains a piece of the original balloon.
