Breitling and Aston Martin share a passion few brands can claim: a pursuit of speed measured and mastered. Now, that shared legacy accelerates with a global, multi-year partnership, positioning Breitling as the Official Watch Partner of Aston Martin and the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team.
This collaboration spans the full Aston Martin universe, from the handcrafted vehicles of Gaydon and St Athan to the high-octane precision of Formula 1. It launches with the Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team, a watch that embodies the intensity and elegance of the race.
All In The Timing

“Aston Martin builds cars that are as much about presence as performance,” says Georges Kern, CEO of Breitling. “Every line, finish, and proportion has purpose. Nothing is left to chance.” Lawrence Stroll, Executive Chairman of Aston Martin, adds: “We are united by values that drive everything we do. The precision, craftsmanship and engineering excellence we pursue on the track are lived and breathed by Breitling.”
The partnership resonates through history. In 1907, Leon Breitling introduced the Vitesse chronograph, capable of measuring speeds up to 250 miles per hour. Around the same time, Aston Martin was conquering its first defining races. In the 1950s and 60s, drivers wore Breitling Navitimers on the wrist while piloting Aston Martins on the track, cementing both brands as emblems of style, technology, and performance.
Racing Inspired
The new Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 channels that heritage. Limited to 1,959 pieces in tribute to Aston Martin’s first F1 season, it features a lightweight titanium case — a first for a Navitimer — a carbon-fibre dial inspired by F1 cockpits, and Aston Martin Racing Green accents with lime highlights from the team livery. Its leather strap evokes a racing harness, while a COSC-certified Manufacture Caliber 01 powers the watch with 70 hours of precision.
From the chronograph to the car, the circuit to the wrist, Breitling and Aston Martin unite once more in their pursuit of speed. The partnership debuts on track at the 2026 Australian Grand Prix, with Breitling branding visible on the AMR26 car and team apparel — a celebration of timing, performance, and shared heritage.
