Sunday RewindRescue The Weekend With A Special Breitling Emergency

With the coolest feature you hope you'll never use.

May 24, 2020

Among the ranks of even the weirdest and most esoteric sport watches, few can stand with such focus and function as the Breitling Emergency. It's a massive, quartz-powered watch that also functions as a location beacon for search and rescue units – should you need rescue. Back in the fall of 2016, our Jason Heaton was sporting a limited edition version of the watch that was designed to commemorate Orbiter 3, a special balloon that managed a nonstop lap of the globe.

While it may be a bit of an overkill move for video games on the couch, the Emergency is a unique and very cool watch. Don't believe us? Click the link below for Heaton's deep dive into the history, development, real-world use cases, and general wearability of this SOS-enabled Breitling.
