About the watch:

Like it was mentioned, the new Endurance Pro IRONMAN collection features two watches in a red and black and gold version. Fulfilling the need for the ultimate athleisure timepiece, the collection comes in a 44mm watch case made out of Breitlight® - a special material that is 3.3 times lighter than titanium and 5.8 times lighter than steel, but significantly harder. Each timepiece is powered by the Breitling Caliber 82 which is a COSC-certified thermocompensated SuperQuartz™ movement that is ten times more precise than regular quartz. It offers time function with a chronograph and a battery backup of four years. Keeping in tune with the aesthetics of the collection, the bidirectional rotating bezel is engraved with compass points.

The dial of the collection is available in a red version (Endurance Pro IRONMAN) and a black dial with a golden inner bezel (Endurance Pro IRONMAN Finisher) with an IRONMAN® logo at and a golden IRONMAN® logo 6 o’clock, respectively. The Super-LumiNova® coated hour and minute hands are legible even in limited lighting conditions.

 The Breitling Endurance Pro IRONMAN comes in a red rubber strap with a Breitlight® double tang-type buckle and the Endurance Pro IRONMAN Finisher is available in exclusively through IRONMAN channels, and its caseback features a special IRONMAN Finisher Series engraving.
