Carbon Composite Case & Eye-Catching Yellow Accents
Encased in a lightweight 43 mm carbon composite shell featuring fixed lugs and a matte finish, the FXD Chrono “Yellow” stands out with bold yellow highlights on its tachymeter scale, chronograph subdials, and fabric strap.
The design emphasizes both readability and sporty elegance, offering luxe amenities—a sporty twist that captures youthful energy without compromising sophistication.
High-Performance Movement & Cycling-Focused Features
Inside resides the in-house MT5813 column-wheel chronograph, tested and certified by COSC, delivering a 70-hour power reserve and 4 Hz frequency.
Built on Breitling’s robust B01 architecture and outfitted with a silicon hairspring, this movement combines rugged reliability with precision.
The cycling-specific tachymeter scale—angled for better on-the-go use—and luminescent ceramic markers add practical luxe details for active wearers.
Exclusive Limited Edition & Authentic Details
Only 300 individually numbered units will be made—#7 reserved for Fabian Cancellara himself. The titanium screw-down crown, direct-action pushers, and engraved carbon caseback depicting a peloton enhance the watch’s exclusivity and attention to detail.
The fabric strap, featuring a bold yellow stripe, reinforces both comfort and sporty finesse—adding yet another layer of luxe details.
