A globetrotting tribute to a larger-than-life basketball superstar

The Chronomat holds a significant place in Breitling’s history. Introduced in 1984, at a time where extra-thin quartz timepieces were the order of the day, Breitling placed a bold bet on an impressively proportioned mechanical watch, styled with panache and tailored for brave airmen and women. The bet paid off, and the Chronomat helped restore Breitling’s rightful place as the maker of choice for those who tamed the sky. 

For those who’ve tamed both the sky, and the hardwood court, Breitling’s versatile Chronomat is now available in a limited-edition collaboration with Giannis Antetokounmpo, which combines the Grenchen maker’s timeless craftsmanship with the Pro Basketball Player’s easygoing style. It features a bright green dial chosen by Giannis himself while preserving classic Chronomat design elements such as the “Rouleaux” bracelet and raised rider tabs at the 15-minute marks. Note the seconds hand counterweight bearing the athlete’s initials “GA,” and his signature on the caseback, making this a true commemorative piece for an NBA legend.

The Chronomat Giannis Antetokounmpo collection is meant for those who can relate to the basketball MVP’s power, precision, and performance — traits that have everything in common with every Breitling timepiece.
