The IRONMAN-branded Endurance Performance Pro is Breitling’s ultralight sports watch to mark the 2024 VinFast IRONMAN World Championship triathlons.
The IRONMAN triathlon is one of the most famous single-day endurance races on the planet and is known for being a true test of heart, body, and soul. It begins before the gun goes off, with months and maybe even years of training. Breitling, the Swiss luxury watchmaker that has built timepieces since 1884 as rugged as the individuals who wear them, has been the official luxury watch partner of the IRONMAN triathlon since 2021.
The Endurance Pro IRONMAN marks the 2024 VinFast IRONMAN World Championship in Nice, France, on the 22nd of September 2024 (women), and Kailua-Kona, Hawai‘i, on the 26th of October 2024 (men). It is the ultimate in racing for extreme athletes. The VinFast IRONMAN World Championship is the culmination of all the global IRONMAN triathlon events, which see professional and age-group athletes alike compete for a qualifying slot in the pinnacle race on the long-distance triathlon calendar.
As part of this active partnership, Breitling is introducing a limited-edition Endurance Pro IRONMAN with a case made of lightweight titanium and the race’s uniquely inspired logo featured at 6 o’clock. This limited edition of 500 pieces comes on a blue rubber strap for maximum performance and durability and has the IRONMAN logo on the caseback.
“The spirit of the IRONMAN competition has much in common with the high-caliber precision and ruggedness of Breitling. This watch was designed for the most arduous journeys and difficult physical challenges. The will and strength to compete in an IRONMAN triathlon is worth commemorating as it reminds us of what we are capable of when we test limits and set out to achieve an ambitious goal.”
Georges Kern, CEO, Breitling
Made of titanium, a robust material 2.2 times lighter than stainless steel, Breitling’s ultra-lightweight Endurance Pro may have been designed with triathlon athletes in mind, but it’s a stylish and sporty chronograph perfect for mastering every day.
The Endurance Pro’s rubber strap and 100 m of water resistance ensures that it’s capable of withstanding rugged underwater and challenging land environments. Powered by Breitling’s COSC-certified SuperQuartz™ caliber 82, the movement provides unmatched accuracy. Other features include easy readability, a timekeeping chronograph, and a solar compass to keep you on track and focused on the finish.
