READY FOR THE FIELD: INTRODUCING THE BREITLING CHRONOMAT NFL COLLECTION

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) NEW YORK, Sept. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Talk about a match-up as exciting as the Super Bowl! Swiss watchmaker
Breitling announces a long-term exclusive licensing agreement with the National football League (NFL), a professional American football league that consists of 32 teams, divided equally between the American Football conference (AFC) and the National Football Conference (NFC). The collaboration is the first of its kind for a luxury Swiss watch brand and the most popular sports league in North America.

With the NFL being known as the sport with the largest and most avid fan base in the world, enthusiasm will be overwhelming as the cooperation introduces the Breitling Chronomat NFL Collection of watches that will honor the 32 teams that play in the league. These watches feature the well-known aesthetics and team colors of each football club, as well as the corresponding team logos on the 9 o'clock subdial and admired NFL logo on the caseback. In celebration of the 104th anniversary of the NFL, each team's watch is limited to 104 pieces.

"Collaborating with such an iconic and established league like the NFL is a touchdown for Breitling," said Breitling CEO Georges Kern. "As a casual, conscious luxury brand with purpose-the high-performance action of the NFL, combined with its values of responsibility and integrity, align perfectly with Breitling."

This isn't Breitling's first play on the football field. Breitling watches have appeared on the wrists of football players and fans for many years. Former NFL quarterback Norman Julius "Boomer" Esiason has been a Breitling Ambassador for over 30 years, proudly sporting the brand's collections. Jacksonville Jaguars Quarterback Trevor Lawrence, the #1 NFL Draft Pick in 2021, stars as one of the faces of the Breitling all-star squad campaign, first introduced in 2022. In 2024, Breitling also presented a limited Chronomat Super Bowl LVIII Edition that was met with great demand from football fans around the world.
Breitling can also be found gracing the wrists of Detroit Lions Running Back Jahmyr Gibbs, Green Bay Packers Head Coach Matt LaFleur, Miami Dolphins Head Coach Mike McDaniel, Atlanta Falcons Head Coach Raheem Morris, New York Jets Captain and Linebacker CJ Mosley, New York Jets Head Coach Robert Saleh.

The stainless-steel watches have all the signature Chronomat characteristics: the raised rider tabs at the 15-minute marks, the easy-grip onion crown, the triple-register dial with integrated date at 6 o'clock and the classic rouleaux bracelet.

Each of the Chronomat B01 42 NFL Team Editions are powered by the exceptional Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01, a COSC-certified chronometer that delivers an impressive power reserve of approximately 70 hours and carries a five-year warranty. The 42-mm case and rouleaux bracelet are stainless steel. The hands are coated with luminescent Super-LumiNova®, and like all Chronomat models, it is water-resistant to 200 meters. Each caseback is specially engraved with the NFL logo and the "One of 104" limitation.
