Breitling Unveils Its First Connected Watch, Exospace B55
The $8,900 watch includes classic chronograph functions and style, along with both analog and digital displays.
Breitling Exospace B55 Connected Watch
The Exospace B55 includes combined SuperQuartz electronic, analog and 12/24 hour LCD displays, a black titanium body, a rotating bezel and a Sapphire glare-proof crystal. Priced at $8,900, the B55 is available through Breitling’s Boutiques and select retailers.
Classic Chronograph Style
With its timeless chronograph-styled face, the B55 carries on the traditions of classic Breitling chronograph watches from throughout the company’s long history. The B55 is available with a choice of black, blue or gray rubber watchbands.
Abundant Chronograph Displays
The latest Breitling timepiece features myriad digital chronograph displays, including a countdown timer, seven daily alarms, a countdown and count up clock, and world time displays.
Automatic Backlighting
The backlighting feature on the twin LCD displays used in the Exospace B55 watch can be activated automatically by tilting the watch at least 35 degrees on your wrist, making it easy to gain information from the device in the dark.
Notification Displays for Emails, Messages and Calls
The Breitling Exospace B55 smartwatch informs wearers with on-screen notifications of incoming emails, SMS or WhatsApp messages, phone calls and reminders of upcoming appointments. Users can also upload data from the chronograph to their smartphones, including flight times, recorded times with split times and lap times for storage or sharing.
SuperQuartz Swiss Watch Movement
The B55 smartwatch includes a SuperQuartz movement that Breitling says is 10 times more accurate than a standard quartz movement. The watch is chronometer-certified by the COSC, the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute.
Two-Months Between Charges
The B55 uses a rechargeable battery that requires charging once every two months with normal use. The watch is 0.60 inches thick and weighs 2.82 ounces without its watchband.
Control by the Crown or Through the Smartphone App
The luxury watch can be controlled by users through its manual crown controls or by using the Breitling app on a smartphone via Bluetooth.
Built With Aircraft Pilots in Mind
The timepiece includes a wide range of features aimed at aircraft pilots, such as an electronic tachymeter for speed and distance calculations, a chronograph for recording up to 50 split times and capabilities for flight time calculations such as takeoff and landing times. The accompanying app for the watch has versions for iOS or Android.
