Lights, camera, double debut: Breitling presents new Spotlight Squad as it launches the line of Chronomat 36 and 32 watches – for women of purpose, action, and style.

“Our inspiration for this new collection is the Breitling woman herself, as represented in our #SQUADONAMISSION campaign: a woman who’s at the top of her game,” says Breitling CEO Georges Kern.

Some people have mastered the art of not only shining in the spotlight, but also shining their light on others and inspiring change in the world. Three of them are on our Spotlight Squad: Charlize Theron, Misty Copeland, and Yao Chen. These extraordinary entertainers are at the top of their game, and have shattered the stereotypes clinging to their gender and respective fields.

Oscar-winner Charlize Theron has proven her versatility in numerous roles and genres. In 2004, she won the Academy Award for Best Actress. In 2019, she starred in and co-produced the drama Bombshell, for which she was nominated for another Academy Award.

In 2007, dancer Misty Copeland was only the second African-American woman to be promoted to soloist with American Ballet Theatre (ABT); in 2015, she was the first African-American woman to become a princi­pal dancer.

Chinese actress Yao Chen has won many awards, including the Audience Choice category of China’s Golden Eagle Award, Best Actress at the Busan International Film Festival  and  the Golden Mulberry Award for Lifetime Achievement.

A Passion for More

Breitling CEO Georges Kern says: “Who better than Charlize Theron, Misty Copeland, and Yao Chen to turn the spotlight on major global causes as they redefine what it means to be a strong woman? Three leading stars known for being fierce and pushing boundaries.”

“And now – dedicated to women – the new Chronomat 36 and 32 collection embodies flair, confidence, and an active lifestyle.”

Ready for any Mission

With its commitment to core values and innovation, Breitling is also about pushing boundaries. As versatile and attractive as the Spotlight Squad, its latest collection – the Chronomat 36 and 32 series – takes women wherever they want to go. Sporty yet elegant, this modern-retro-inspired watch easily takes its wearer from business meeting to the beach – and everywhere in between. It symbolizes competence and effortless style.
