David Beckham travels by Breitling
The Swiss brand has long-established ties with aviation, and has created a number of travel watches including the famous Unitime in the 1950s and 60s.
In the spring of 2012, Breitling added the Transocean Chronograph Unitime to the Transocean range. Equipped with the new Manufacture Breitling Caliber B05 featuring a patented mechanism, this worldtimer chronograph has a double disk, which enables permanent readings of the time in all 24 timezones, and its ultra-user-friendly crown-operated correction system.
One of the world’s most successful sportsmen and style icons, David Beckham stars in the Breitling advertisement, which was shot by renowned American photographer Anthony Mandler. On the runway of the Mojave Air & Space Port in California, this striking image shows Beckham standing in front of a private jet wearing his Transocean Chronograph Unitime. “I’ve always been a long-time admirer of Breitling,” said David Beckham. “As a company they create not only the highest-performance watches but also timeless designs that have inspired generations. It was a natural choice for me to partner with this fantastic brand.”
