For years, I was under the impression that Breitling watches were just for men.  Perhaps it was their association with aviation, or their recent partnership with Bentley Motors, but it always seemed to be such a male-dominated watch company, worn extensively by pilots, that I never thought to look for a women’s version… until now.

Good news for women who have been admiring these distinctive timepieces on men’s wrists.  The Breitling Windrider series includes the Cockpit Women’s watch.  Designed with enough flash and femininity to satisfy even the most fashion-conscious woman, the Breitling Cockpit Lady is stunning in its meticulous attention to detail.

The face is available in gold, white or black, with a stainless steel, two-tone, steel/gold or rose gold case.  But the most exciting part, for me anyway, is the selection of bracelets.  A collection of leather, croco, lizard, and Diver Pro styles are available, with a wide selection of colors that complement the gorgeous Breitling case.  The widest selection of colors is available in Croco, including red, navy, white, pink, yellow, brown, green, blue, black and orange.  Honestly, after seeing how great these bracelets look with the Cockpit design, I don’t know if I could ever decide on just one color.

Breitling distinguishes itself by its modern interpretation of the feminine in these timepieces.  For a brand like Breitling, best known for its “winged B” logo and history in aviation, a ladies’ sports watch must be softer; an effortless combination of performance and elegance.   This beautiful Cockpit Lady by Breitling is the culmination of their best known design elements, specifically tailored for the active woman: SuperQuartz movement, a unidirectional ratcheted bezel, Roman numerals, and a cambered Sapphire crystal, glare-proofed on both sides.

Check out the Breitling Cockpit Lady, and you will learn that Breitling is definitely not a watch company just for men.  Wear it long enough and you may want to take some flying lessons!
