New Breitling Emergency II Watch

Heir Breitling Emergency model is expected for a long time. At Baselworld this year, Emergency II is presented. This is a clock "rock" (diameter 51 mm), but the real miracle of technology. Intended primarily for pilots and all others who may be in distress, emergency II on the role of EM modules goes further than its predecessor.

Old emergency was a radio transmitter on a frequency of 121.5 MHz with a range of 90 nautical miles (167 km) and 6,000 feet in the air, under normal conditions, in calm water or flat land. Emergency does not have enough power to send a signal to the satellite, which is certainly limited its use.

Emergency II, as well as standard analog transmitter on 121.5 MHz is applied and a transmitter that sends a digital signal at a frequency of 406 MHz which gives the rescuer more information about the location, but what is most importantly - the signal is sent to the satellite. This is exactly what the Breitling Emergency II useful anywhere in the world. When unscrewing the cap from the transmitter, both sides take antenna.then housing converts the signal into two frequencies over 24 hours.

Emergency Model II has a rechargeable battery. We have reached the dimensions that are not for each hand! With a diameter of 51 mm and a height of 18 mm, II emergency clock is high. Fortunately case is titanium, so that the weight is supportable. The watch is Breitling Calibre 76 (ETA 988 352), the same mechanism as in the previous model. This is a SuperQuartz mechanism. The annual variations of + / - 12 seconds, the mechanism is a COSC certificate. As for the other functions of the mechanism, there are analog and digital clock 12/24h. Low battery indicator, measured hundredth of a second chronograph, timer, second time zone and schedule in multiple languages.

Emergency II comes in three different dials. Black, orange and yellow. Also, in addition to titanium bracelets are also available with rubber strap. Expected price is $ 18,500.
