B55 Exospace Black Titanium / Black / TwinPro Grey / Folding

In Context

At 46 mm it is a large watch — well above this catalogue’s 40 mm median, and enough to dominate a narrow wrist. At 15.25 mm it is a tall case, and it will catch on a cuff. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. 100 m is genuine swimming resistance — more than the shape of this watch suggests it would need.

It is quartz, so it will hold time far more closely than any mechanical watch here, and asks for a battery every few years rather than a service.

VB5510H1.BE45.245S stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a black matte dial with a titanium case. Introduced in 2015.

Updated version of the B50 in-house SuperQuartz movement. Caliber B55 can be connected via Bluetooth to an app on a smartphone, which can than be used to adjust the time, set the alarm, recording of timing sessions et cetera. It is used in the B55 Connected watch, which was first shown at BaselWorld 2015.

11 other watches in the library run the Breitling Caliber B55.
