- The Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team has announced its new watch sponsor as Breitling in what’s confirmed to be a multiyear deal.
- To celebrate the partnership, the Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Aston Martin Aramco Formula ONE™ Team has been revealed as a new limited edition.
- The Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Aston Martin Aramco Formula ONE™ Team is a limited edition of 1,959 pieces and has a local RRP of $15,990.
The 2026 Formula 1 season is ready to kick off in a few weeks at the Australian Grand Prix, and with a new season comes new sponsors. One particularly exciting new announcement is the freshly inked deal between the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team and Breitling, confirmed as the team’s Official Watch Partner for at least the next few years.
Both Aston Martin and Breitling have shed their former dance partners (Girard-Perregaux and Bentley, respectively), announcing the arrival of their first collaborative watch in the Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Aston Martin Aramco Formula ONE™ Team.
Lengthy name aside, it’s an undeniably good-looking addition to Breitling’s catalogue, featuring a 43mm titanium case (13.69mm thick) and a subtly cool black and green carbon fibre dial as a nod to Aston Martin’s racecar livery. Contrasting against the carbon fibre are a trio of classic white subdials, with the bright yellow chronograph hand serving as another quiet reference to Aston Martin’s colour scheme.
Powering this new limited edition is the in-house Breitling 01 automatic chronograph calibre, equipped with a column wheel, vertical clutch, and a black PVD-coated tungsten rotor that features the Aston Martin Formula One Team logo.
When fully wound, the movement offers a very solid 70 hours of power reserve, and the watch arrives paired with a black textile-textured leather strap.
“Aston Martin builds cars that are as much about presence as performance,” says Georges Kern, CEO of Breitling, in a statement. “We share that same heritage of iconic design: every line, finish, and proportion has purpose. Nothing is left to chance.”
Breitling promises to be an exciting new addition to the F1 grid for the 2026 season, and if the Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43 Aston Martin Aramco Formula ONE™ Team is anything to go by, there will be plenty more eye-catching new references to come. The new release is a limited edition of 1,959 pieces and has a local RRP of $15,990.
