(United Arab Emirates, 23rd February 2021) Breitling has been announced as the official timekeeper of the UAE Tour 2021, the Middle East’s world tour race. As Official Timekeeper, the luxury Swiss watchmaker will award the winner of each of the tour’s seven stages, and the overall General Classification victor, with the Breitling Endurance Pro. The model features a red inner bezel ring and a bold red rubber strap, matching the UAE Tour’s official colour.
The partnership is Breitling’s latest chapter in a long and storied link with cycling and continues a legacy that has embraced legendary riders such as Fausto Coppi and Gino Bartali, as well as partnerships with major competitions including the Giro d’Italia and the Tour de France.
Commenting on the partnership, Aed Adwan, Managing Director, Breitling Middle East, India and Africa said: ‘’We are delighted to be the official timekeeper of the UAE Tour 2021 and to be continuing Breitling’s legacy in competitive cycling. With the Endurance Pro we adapted our SuperQuartz™ technology to the needs of professional athletes who play as hard as they work. And the Breitlight® case is so light that it won’t interfere with anyone’s training routine or sporting activity.”
The Breitling Endurance Pro
The Breitling Endurance Pro combines an ultralightweight 44 millimeter Breitlight® case and a thermocompensated SuperQuartz™ movement ten times more accurate than conventional quartz, and it offers optimal comfort, matchless precision, and functionality that will appeal both to committed athletes and to more casual sports enthusiasts.
Designed for men and women whose active lives blend a professional mind-set with a sporty lifestyle, the Endurance Pro is equal to the challenges of a rigorous workout but fashionable enough for everyday wear.
