Breitling Avenger Hurricane with “Breightlight” Case

3/21/2016

Sorry for the lack of Baselworld posts (we all know how many watches are being released), I was away visiting colleges)

This new Breitling features a new material released by Breitling dubbed "Breightlight", which is apparently 3.3 times lighter than titanium and 5.8 times lighter than steel, yet it is also much harder, making it even more resistant to scratches. While the press kit failed to include that type of material it is exactly, The texture looks something like carbon, perhaps. I don't know if that will throw off some buyers, but I'm sure most people don't care as much about specs as me. The watch is a massive 50mm in diameter, so definitely not for everyone.  The large case protects the B12 movement (chronograph and GMT). The MSRP for this watch is $8,390.
