BASEL 2016: Breitling Avenger Hurricane





Its stature, its material, as well as its 24-hour indication combine to make the new Avenger Hurricane a truly standout model. Featuring a 50 mm XXL diameter, a sturdy construction equipped with lateral reinforcements and an all-black technical look enhanced by yellow accents and aviation-inspired stencil-type numerals, it is designed to share every challenge. This instrument for professionals is a compendium of boldness, innovation and performance. The Avenger Hurricane case is entirely made out of Breitlight®. This high-tech material exclusive to Breitling boasts a number of functional qualities. It is anti-magnetic, stable in respect to thermal variations and above all ultra-resistant to scratches, traction and corrosion. As a crowning touch, it is 3.3 times lighter than titanium and 5.8 times lighter than steel. The Avenger Hurricane is definitely a superlative Breitling in every possible way.
