At the forefront of connected chronographs, the Exospace B55 has asserted itself as a concentrated package of innovation, functionality and performance.

Putting the functionality and reliability of a smartphone on the wrist of its customers, the Exospace B55 will answer the demand from users to offer a modern day take on luxury watches. The model allows users to upload results of various industry measurements, including flight times, recorded times with split times and lap times from the chronograph to their smartphone, making the model well equipped to meet the needs of professionals such as members of the APC.

The Exospace B55 is a future-oriented watch which is distinguished by its resolutely technical design featuring a sturdy and light titanium case equipped with a rotating bezel complete with rider tabs, and an exclusive TwinPro strap with two colour options. The model utilises two-way Bluetooth communication to enable the watch and the smartphone to synchronise for ease of use. In addition to its ability to assist pilots, the watch allows users to perform everyday adjustments such as time-settings, timezones and alarms. Users are also able to receive smartphone notifications including incoming emails, SMS and WhatsApp messages and phone calls (with caller’s name or number).

A significant trait across all Breitling models, user-friendliness is key and is enhanced in the Exospace B55 with a particularly simple and logical control mode, involving function selection by rotating the crown, and activation/deactivation by means of two pushpieces. The two ultra-legible LCD (liquid crystal display) screens feature a backlighting system that may be activated merely by pressing the crown – or when the user tilts their wrist at more than a 35° angle. This tilt function proves particularly effective for users when the hand is gripping aircraft controls or a steering wheel.

The Expospace B55 is powered by the exclusive new multifunction Breitling Caliber B55, a SuperQuartz™ movement ten times more accurate than standard quartz, and, like all Breitling watches, is chronometer-certified by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute).
