Breitling has partnered with Manchester City striker Erling Haaland to create the Erling Haaland Signature Chronomat collection, featuring two limited-edition timepieces with meteorite dials that make each watch completely unique.
The collaboration includes the Chronomat Automatic GMT 40 in stainless steel with platinum bezel, limited to 500 pieces, and the Chronomat B01 42 in 18k red gold, capped at 250 pieces. Both models showcase dials cut from the Muonionalusta meteorite, a 4.5 billion-year-old cosmic material that landed on Earth nearly one million years ago.
“I wanted something one of a kind,” Haaland explained. “The Chronomat just clicked. It’s clean, all metal or with a rubber strap – it lets you go bold with the dial. And the meteorite makes each one different. You’re never going to see the same watch on someone else’s wrist.”
Breitling CEO Georges Kern added: “Erling plays like he’s from another planet, so when we talked about materials, a meteorite dial was the perfect fit. It’s a watch as powerful and singular as he is.”
The meteorite material comes from fragments scattered across northern Sweden’s glacial moraines. Each piece displays the distinctive Widmanstätten pattern, a naturally occurring crystalline structure formed during incredibly slow cooling in space’s vacuum. This pattern of interlaced bands is visible to the naked eye and impossible to replicate artificially.
The GMT 40 features a meteorite dial in a stainless steel case with platinum bezel, accented by a red-gold GMT hand and Haaland’s initials on the central seconds hand. The caseback is engraved “ONE OF 500” and “ERLING HAALAND 9” surrounding an engraving of Haaland in his signature goal-celebration pose.
Completing the collection is an ultra-exclusive “ONE OF 5” edition created for Haaland and his inner circle. Crafted in 18k red gold, it features the meteorite dial, transparent caseback revealing the Caliber 01 movement, and bespoke case-side engraving of his name and jersey number.
“Seeing this watch come to life was something else,” Haaland noted. “The dial, the engravings, the initials – every detail told a part of my story. I’m excited for people to wear it and feel that same connection.”
All models come in wooden presentation boxes with signed thank-you notes from Haaland, emphasizing the personal nature of this stellar collaboration between Swiss watchmaking excellence and football’s rising star.
