Swiss made fake Breitling UK has no shortage of adventure watches it could have chosen as the vessel for honoring the Orbiter3 , but the brand ultimately went with the Aerospace: an anachronistic, ana-digi leftover from the days when quartz was king. And you know what? It totally works.
Alongside Grand Seiko and Omega, perfect replica Breitling is one of the few luxury brands that still puts effort into its quartz movements. The cheap fake Breitling Aerospace B70 Orbiter is powered by the newly-developed, in-house “SuperQuartz” Calibre B70 movement that’s COSC-certified as a chronometer, thermocompensated against temperature changes and is ten times as precise as a typical quartz engine. It features a 1/100th second split-second, flyback chronograph, a perpetual calendar, dual alarms and a number of other functions on its analog-digital display.
The best 1:1 replica Breitling’s dial is a bright orange, matching the color of the original capsule attached to the balloon of the Orbiter 3. The mission logo also appears on the dial, while a callout to the Orbiter 3’s achievement appears on the caseback. Speaking of the caseback, that’s also where you’ll find the most interesting piece of this watch.
Visible through a sapphire caseback is an actual piece of the Orbiter 3 balloon itself, meaning owners of this Swiss movement fake Breitling UK will own a direct connection to this trip around the world on their wrist. Is a watch containing a piece of a world-traveling balloon gimmicky? Yes. Is it also awesome? Hell yes. This is exactly the type of thing I love about watches: The romantic link to adventure, the tangible connection to history, the little details that reward closer inspection. If you can fit a piece of a vehicle responsible for one of aviation’s landmark achievements inside a watch, you might as well do it.
I’m also glad high quality replica Breitling went with the Aerospace for the watch, as it’s one of the brand’s more affordable models and helps keeps the price reasonable for what is obviously a limited release. (There’s only so much balloon to go around, after all, but Swiss made copy Breitling hasn’t announced how many will ultimately be made.) It also seems likely that, in the ’90s, people like Piccard and Jones would have been wearing quartz watches during their daring escapades, as it was still considered superior technology.
The titanium Breitling super clone for sale UK on a rubber strap retails for $4,700, while the version on the full titanium bracelet goes for $4,900. It’s available as of March 21, the exact 25th anniversary of the top copy Breitling Orbiter 3’s landing.
