Breitling has announced a new partnership with Wheels and Waves, a world festival of motorcycling, surfing and skateboarding held in Biarritz, for which the watchmaker will become official timekeeper for the next three years. The sporting performances that will take place during this event reflect Breitling's links with these worlds: for example, its partnership with Norton Motorcycles, the legendary British motorbike manufacturer, or the Breitling Surfer Squad (composed of Kelly Slater, Sally Fitzgibbons and Stephanie Gilmore), or even Breitling's role as the official stopwatch of the 2019 Clean Water Pro (World Surf League competition in Lemoore, California). "Our partnership with Wheels and Waves," said Breitling CEO Georges Kern, "allows us to highlight the trendy surf lifestyle and the passion for sporty and stylish motorbikes that we share with the festival. As the ideal sports brand for people of action, determination and style, our products and values are a perfect match for the spirit and enthusiasm associated with Wheels and Waves".
