COMMEMORATE YOUR ACHIEVEMENT IN THE NEW LIMITED EDITION ENDURANCE PRO IRONMAN

The new 500-piece limited edition IRONMAN-branded Endurance Performance Pro is Breitling’s ultralight sports watch to mark the 2024 VinFast IRONMAN World Championship triathlons, available only at Breitling.com and select Breitling boutiques and retailers.

What keeps you going when you are pushing yourself to your absolute limits? You have the strength and motivation, but you need the time to realize your inspirational fitness goals. With the Endurance Pro IRONMAN®, you have the toughest tool to keep you on track and take you beyond the breaking point of mere ambition.

The IRONMAN triathlon is one of the most famous single-day endurance races on the planet and is known for being a true test of heart, body, and soul. It begins before the gun goes off, with months and maybe even years of training. Breitling, the Swiss luxury watchmaker that has built timepieces since 1884 as rugged as the individuals who wear them, has been the official luxury watch partner of the IRONMAN triathlon since 2021.

The Endurance Pro IRONMAN marks the 2024 VinFast IRONMAN World Championship in Nice, France, on September 22, 2024 (women), and Kailua-Kona, Hawai‘i, on October 26, 2024 (men). It is the ultimate in racing for extreme athletes. The VinFast IRONMAN World Championship is the culmination of all the global IRONMAN triathlon events, which see professional and age-group athletes alike compete for a qualifying slot in the pinnacle race on the long-distance triathlon calendar.

As part of this active partnership, Breitling is introducing a limited-edition Endurance Pro IRONMAN with a case made of lightweight titanium and the race’s uniquely inspired logo featured at 6 o’clock.

The rejuvenated IRONMAN logo reflects renewal and resilience, inspired by this year’s theme for the VinFast IRONMAN World Championship – “new life”, or “‘Ola Hou” in Hawaiian. The ama‘u plant above the M symbolizes resilience and new life and recalls the IRONMAN competitors’ fierce focus on achievement. The ferns and lavender on both the M and the dot are a fusion of Hawai‘i’s lush vegetation and the calming lavender of the fields of southern France.

This limited edition of 500 pieces comes on a blue rubber strap for maximum performance and durability and has the IRONMAN logo on the caseback.

“The spirit of the IRONMAN competition has much in common with the high-caliber precision and ruggedness of Breitling,” says CEO Georges Kern.

“This watch was designed for the most arduous journeys and difficult physical challenges.”

“The will and strength to compete in an IRONMAN triathlon is worth commemorating as it reminds us of what we are capable of when we test limits and set out to achieve an ambitious goal,” adds Kern.

The limited-edition Endurance Pro IRONMAN is available only at Breitling.com and select Breitling boutiques and retailers.

DESIGNED FOR PERFORMANCE

Made of titanium, a robust material 2.2 times lighter than stainless steel, Breitling’s ultra- lightweight Endurance Pro may have been designed with triathlon athletes in mind, but it’s a stylish and sporty chronograph perfect for mastering every day.

The Endurance Pro’s rubber strap and 100 m of water resistance ensures that it’s capable of withstanding rugged underwater and challenging land environments. Powered by Breitling’s COSC-certified SuperQuartz™ caliber 82, the movement provides unmatched accuracy. Other features include easy readability, a timekeeping chronograph, and a solar compass to keep you on track and focused on the finish.

Pick up the Endurance Pro IRONMAN and be inspired to train harder and trek further in your journey with optimum achievement in mind. It’s a watch that is a milestone as you make your own way through an active life like an IRONMAN.

THE ULTIMATE ATHLEISURE WATCH IN A SLEEK NEW SIZE

BREITLING’S ENDURANCE PRO GETS A 38 MM ASSORTMENT, A COLLECTION-WIDE DESIGN REFRESH AND A POWERED-UP TRIATHLON SQUAD

The Breitling Endurance Pro is a multitasking watch that combines the best qualities of the brand’s technical and lifestyle collections. Positioned in the Professional range, it is up to the challenges of a rigorous workout but also serves as a vibrant fashion statement for men and women, making it the ultimate athleisure watch.

The Endurance Pro, previously available exclusively as a 44 mm model, now comes in a universal 38 mm size with five colorful executions. To celebrate the launch, Breitling is welcoming two new members to its Triathlon Squad: reigning IRONMAN® Women’s World Champion Lucy Charles-Barclay and Sam Laidlow, the youngest male winner in IRONMAN history. These exceptional sportspeople join multi-title-holding triathletes Jan Frodeno and Daniela Ryf on Breitling’s crew of pros who know that holding and defending titles demands a watch as tough as their races.

“This is a watch that was built to swim, bike, run, and keep up with you no matter the intensity ofyour workout—plus, it looks great as a casual sports chronograph,” says Breitling CEO Georges Kern. “This new size makes it accessible to an even wider range of wearers.”

ENDURANCE PRO: REVIVAL OF THE FITTEST

With its ultralightweight case and comfortable, form-fitting rubber strap, the Endurance Pro is designed to appeal to committed athletes and casual sports enthusiasts alike. It’s made of Breitlight®, a robust material three times lighter than titanium and nearly six times lighter than stainless steel. The material is also nonmagnetic, thermally stable, hypoallergenic, and highly resistant to scratches, traction, and corrosion.

On the new 38 mm Endurance Pro models, straps and crowns are colored to match the inner bezel rings in a choice of five hues: purple, pink, white, light blue, or red. Meanwhile, the existing 44 mm Endurance Pro is also getting a refreshed treatment with a new streamlined rubber strap in navy, orange, white, and light-blue colorways. On both sizes, the hands and oversized numerals are coated with Super-LumiNova® for easy reading in low light.

Like all watches in Breitling’s Professional range, the Endurance Pro is powered by a  thermocompensated SuperQuartz™ movement, a technology that is 10 times more accurate than conventional quartz. The 44 mm model contains the Breitling Caliber 82, and the 38 mm size is powered by slightly smaller Caliber 83. Both are COSC-certified chronometers designed to deliver exceptional precision.

 

BREITLING’S ULTRALIGHT WATCH HERITAGE

The Endurance Pro is the modern evolution of the Breitling Sprint, introduced in the 1970s as a performance chronograph for the era’s fashion-conscious athletes. Its lightweight resin case and heart-rate-monitoring pulsometer scale made it ideal for sports, the chronograph gave it professional tool-watch status, and its vibrant colors provided the ’70s dayglo cool.

Built for competition, the modern Endurance Pro retains these elements. It’s water-resistant to 10 bar (100 meters) and has a tactile rubberized crown for excellent grip and maneuverability. It can time intervals to 1/10th of a second, take the pulse of an athlete, and keep competitors on the right track with its solar compass. Like the Sprint before it, the Endurance Pro does it all in style and vivid color.

THE TRIATHLON SQUAD GETS TWO NEW MEMBERS

Breitling’s Professional watches are designed to perform in the most extreme conditions and the toughest competitions on Earth. The same can be said for the professional athletes on Breitling’s Triathlon Squad starring in Breitling’s new Endurance Pro campaign.

Meet the members:

JAN FRODENO
The German Olympic gold medalist, three-time IRONMAN World Champion, and two-time IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion defines what it means to push your limits. He is the first person to win all major triathlon titles for different distances. Throughout his career, Frodeno has broken several world records in the full distance, staying ahead of the competition for 15 years.

DANIELA RYF
There’s never been a limit to what Daniela Ryf can achieve. Swiss-made like Breitling, Daniela is a five-time IRONMAN World Champion, a five-time IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion, and the current holder of the world record for long-distance triathlon. Her 2018 victories marked the third time that she achieved the prestigious “double”—winning a 70.3 and Kona World Championship in the same year—something that no other triathlete has ever done.

LUCY CHARLES-BARCLAY
Lucy Charles-Barclay is redefining endurance sports. This British powerhouse won the 2023 IRONMAN World Championship after finishing as a runner-up four times. She is also an IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion, known for her relentless drive and phenomenal swim prowess. Her determination and tenacity make her a standout in the triathlon world.

SAM LAIDLOW
Sam Laidlow showed great potential to become a professional triathlete from a very young age. His relentless training paid off in 2023 when, at just 24 years old, the French athlete became the youngest male winner in the history of the IRONMAN World Championship. Known for his impressive bike splits and fearless racing style, Laidlow is setting new benchmarks and inspiring the next generation of triathletes.
