The fashion icon lends her signature style to the limited-edition Chronomat 36 Victoria Beckham collection.
When Victoria Beckham launched her eponymous clothing line in 2008, fashion’s biggest players waited with bated breath to see her catwalk debut.
More than 15 years later, Beckham’s designs are Fashion Week fixtures, coveted for their sleek sophistication and playful blend of feminine and masculine tailoring.
Now, Breitling introduces a new line of timepieces co-designed with Victoria Beckham. The Chronomat Automatic 36 Victoria Beckham collection, limited to just 1,500 pieces, is the result of a one-of-a-kind collaboration between the luxury watchmaker and the celebrated fashion house creative director.
“The Chronomat is already a versatile watch with a classic form,” commented Breitling CEO Georges Kern on the partnership. “With Victoria Beckham’s signature style, this collection is a modern, radiant expression of that timepiece.”
Beckham, in turn, expressed her admiration for Breitling’s creative process: “It has been wonderful watching Breitling’s craftsmanship and innovation come together with my ideas to create something so elegant and fresh.”
Fashion Meets Function
The Chronomat is Breitling’s chic, all-purpose timepiece and a particular favorite of women who want the best of both worlds: fashion and function.
The Victoria Beckham collection retains classic Chronomat features like the metal rouleaux bracelet and raised rider tabs at the 15-minute mark. These are combined with refined new colorways inspired by Beckham’s own Spring/Summer 2024 palette, including peppermint, midnight blue, dove gray, and sand.
The collection features both the Breitling logo on the dial and Victoria Beckham’s initials on the seconds hand, with a choice of cases in stainless steel or yellow gold – a material specially revived by Breitling for use on this line. The dials also reference the limitation: “One of 400” for each of the stainless-steel pieces, and “One of 100” for each of the gold variations. Look closely for the subtle VB logo and inscription on the bracelet.
Powered by the Breitling Caliber 10, the Chronomat Automatic 36 Victoria Beckham has a running time of approximately 42 hours off the wrist. On the wrist, it keeps going as long as you do, thanks to the self-winding automatic three-hand movement with date feature. Like all Breitling watches, each piece has achieved Contrôle officiel suisse des chronomètres (COSC) certification, a distinguished independent validation of its precision and performance.
This limited-edition Chronomat comes in a specially designed co-branded box and the gold pieces are accompanied by a co-branded travel pouch.
Picture Perfect
The collection’s stunning campaign was shot by legendary Italian fashion photographer Mario Sorrenti, who has captured the world’s top leaders, celebrities, and supermodels, and whose work is permanently exhibited at the V&A Museum and National Gallery in London. The campaign features rising-star Annemary Aderibigbe, a model who embodies the essence of both the Breitling and Victoria Beckham woman: strength, sophistication, plus a touch of the unexpected.
Since 2018, Breitling has been committed to expanding its women’s watch offerings. With the Chronomat Automatic 36 Victoria Beckham, Breitling continues to celebrate women who are bold, authentic, and unapologetically confident—traits that never go out of style.
