Helping mark the first-ever zero gravity flights for civilians in the UAE, Breitling – the exclusive partner of the project – has unveiled a limited edition watch

The Swiss watch manufacturer will provide passengers on the weightless flights – which are being organised by Swiss Space Systems (S3) for 2015 – with an exclusive chronograph specially designed for the unique expedition.

All premium and VIP passengers will be gifted with a Breitling S3 ZeroG chronograph, which they will be able to keep as a memento of their zero gravity experience. The new timepiece is set to serve as a boarding card for the passengers and will not be commercialised outside the flight programme.

Equipped with a lightweight and strong black titanium case and a SuperQuartz movement, the chronograph will feature an S3 logo on the dial and the rubber strap, as well an engraving on the caseback which depicts parabolic flight.
