Breitling's triad: Purpose, Action, Style
Besides offering models that feature a list of extremely useful and practical gadgets – such as chronograph and water and pressure resistance— Breitling's functionality is not the only thing that makes it special. More than that, the designer is based on a triad that it proudly fulfills and that also became its motto: purpose, action, and style.
Firstly, every watch Breitling produces, it does so for a reason. A clear example of that usefulness is Breitling's agreement with Swiss International Airlines since 2016, a cooperation in which Breitling is kept as the official onboard timekeeper in all of the company's flights.
We all know that keeping track of exact times on a flight is challenging due to unpredictable factors such as outside wind currents, so this partnership is just to show the company's unwavering commitment to quality and precision, and its ability to deliver results.
In addition, action is another important feature to the designer. They strive to add movement to one’s life, as well as the desire to keep moving forward. Lastly, style, because the brand produces beautifully unique pieces aesthetically - no matter if it's a more sporty take or a more traditional one. With Breitling, style is never compromised.
