Bentley & Breitling – Top Gun meets the Magnificent Seven

To present seven bespoke Bentleys and seven matching Breitling chronographs to their new owners, the entire fleet of aircraft from the Breitling Jet Team was rolled out at the Seattle Boeing Seafair Airshow…

The Breitling Jet Team is the world’s largest professional civilian flight team performing in jets, with a fleet comprising seven L-39 C Albatros jets that can reach speeds of up to 565mph while flying in close formation. Inspired by this daring squadron, Bentley and Breitling have created a limited run of Continental GT Speeds and matching Chronomat 44 watches. The seven cars – each given bespoke liveries and details by the Mulliner personalisation programme – were handed over with their matching timepieces by the corresponding jet’s pilots, who then took the lucky seven on a scenic flight across the Seattle skyline.

You can find Bentleys and Breitlings for sale in the Classic Driver Market.
