Bentley Continental Supersports buyers offered limited-edition Breitling B55 watch
Owners of the 2017 Bentley Continental GT Supersports can pair their car with a Breitling for Bentley Supersports B55 chronograph, limited to 500 pieces worldwide.
Bentley’s 2017 Continental GT Supersports, the marque’s most powerful and fastest production model to date, comes with an exclusive offer for buyers: the option to purchase a limited-edition Breitling for Bentley Supersports B55 chronograph. Only 500 examples of the Swiss-made timepiece will be produced, matching the rarity and bespoke appeal of the car itself.
The Continental GT Supersports delivers 710PS (700hp) and 1,017Nm of torque from its 6.0-litre twin-turbocharged W12 engine. This makes it the most potent road-going Bentley ever produced, with a top speed that places it among the world’s fastest grand tourers. Bentley has not confirmed the exact production run for the Supersports, but numbers will be limited. For context, earlier Supersports models have been produced in small volumes, and the 2017 edition continues that tradition.
The accompanying Breitling for Bentley Supersports B55 is designed to reflect the car’s technical and visual character. Its titanium case echoes the optional titanium exhaust system fitted to the Supersports, while the carbon fibre dial and red-edged black rubber strap reference the car’s interior and exterior detailing. The watch is powered by an electronic chronograph movement and features two LCD displays, setting it apart from traditional mechanical chronographs.
Connected features and motorsport inspiration
The Supersports B55 is a connected watch, with Bluetooth integration to a dedicated app. Owners can record and review data such as lap times, rally stage timings, and tachymeter readings. The watch is capable of storing up to 30 rally stages, including information on departure dates, start times, durations, and intermediate splits. This motorsport-inspired functionality is intended to appeal to buyers who value precision timing and performance data, whether on the road or track.
The collaboration between Bentley and Breitling dates back to 2003, with the Supersports B55 representing the latest chapter in a long-running partnership. For buyers seeking a matching set, the watch provides a physical link to the car’s performance credentials and design ethos. Both the Continental GT Supersports and its companion timepiece are aimed squarely at collectors and enthusiasts who value rarity, craftsmanship and a direct connection between car and accessory.
