The Breitling Avenger is created for jet pilots who face challenging conditions in the cockpit. Its limited edition of 360 pieces commemorates the 60th anniversary of the Red Arrows, the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team. However, even those without air force experience can admire its strong design, extraordinary durability, and advanced features.
The blue dial on this timepiece showcases the Royal Air Force insignia and is accompanied by a custom caseback featuring the 60th Diamond Season logo. At the 9 o'clock position, you'll find the team's iconic emblem with the word "éclat" (meaning "brilliance"), first designed in 1980. This stainless steel watch can be worn with a stainless-steel bracelet or a blue military calfskin leather strap with striking topstitching. Withstanding water depths of up to 300 m, it offers easy-grip functionality and is built to resist corrosion. Limited to only 360 pieces worldwide, a percentage of sales will be donated to the Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund in honour of the admirable service of the British armed forces.
The Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund, a registered charity in England and Wales (1081009) and in Scotland (SC038109), has a long-standing tradition of supporting current and former members of the Royal Air Force as well as their families and dependents. As a leading welfare charity, it fulfils a crucial role in providing aid and assistance.
