Made for the toughest triathletes and everyday adventurers alike, these watches celebrate the 2025 IRONMAN World Championship® events taking place in Nice, France, and Kailua-Kona, Hawaii; and the 2025 IRONMAN® 70.3® World Championship in Marbella, Spain.
What keeps you going when you’re pushing yourself beyond your limits? You have the strength and motivation, but you need the time to realize your inspirational fitness goals. With the Endurance Pro IRONMAN®, you have the perfect tool to keep you on track and take you beyond the breaking point of mere ambition.
The IRONMAN World Championship is considered one of the toughest single-day endurance races on the planet and is known for being a true test of heart, body, and soul. The real challenge begins before the gun goes off, with years of training and thousands of miles covered. Breitling, the Swiss luxury watchmaker that has built timepieces since 1884, has been the official luxury watch partner of the IRONMAN triathlon since 2021 and supports a dedicated Triathlon Squad, which includes IRONMAN champions Lucy Charles-Barclay and Sam Laidlow. “The spirit of IRONMAN matches the essence of Breitling,” says CEO Georges Kern. “Precision, performance, and pushing yourself further. These watches are a tribute to those who commit themselves fully to the challenge.”
ENDURANCE PRO IRONMAN® WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 2025 EDITION—NICE, FRANCE, AND KAILUA-KONA, HAWAII
Limited to 500 pieces
Commemorating both the men’s race in Nice, France, on September 14, 2025, and the women’s race in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, on October 11, 2025, this 44 mm-diameter Endurance Pro model is made from high-performance titanium—43% lighter than stainless steel, and tough enough for any terrain. A blue IRONMAN-branded rubber strap ensures maximum comfort and durability, and the grey dial features this championship’s unique IRONMAN logo at 6 o’clock. This logo depicts an eagle and a turtle, which showcase the nature of Nice and Hawaii, and also symbolize the inner strength and resilience necessary for IRONMAN athletes to strive toward their goals. With its limited production, unique material, and custom design, this Endurance Pro is the premium model in the lineup.
THE ENDURANCE PRO 2025 IRONMAN® 70.3® WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 2025 EDITION—MARBELLA, SPAIN
Limited to 300 pieces
In commemoration of the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in Marbella, Spain, this limited edition Endurance Pro celebrates both the women’s race on November 8 and the men’s race on November 9, 2025. The dial features turquoise with orange accents, matching the unique IRONMAN® 70.3® World Championship logo at 6 o’clock—which uses imagery evocative of the Andalusian culture: a typical arched door and decorative tile, surrounded by nature. Complementing the dial, the watch comes with a turquoise IRONMAN-branded rubber strap, ensuring maximum comfort and durability. The 44 mm-diameter case is made of Breitlight®, Breitling’s proprietary material, which is 3.3 times lighter than titanium and 5.8 times lighter than stainless steel. Breitlight® is hypoallergenic, has a warmer-than-metal touch, is thermally stable, and resistant to scratches.
DESIGNED FOR PERFORMANCE
The Endurance Pro performs everywhere from water to land—and doubles as a robust and stylish everyday watch. Both Endurance Pro models are powered by Breitling’s caliber 82, a thermocompensated, COSC-certified SuperQuartz™ movement. With their 100 m water resistance, solar compass, date, pulsometer scale, and chronograph, they are designed for athletes pushing through the most demanding races on earth.
Both references will be sold exclusively at Breitling.com, at select Breitling boutiques and retailers, or at the race locations in Nice, France, and Marbella, Spain. The Endurance Pro IRONMAN World Championship® is available now, with the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship Edition being available starting October 2025.

ABOUT THE IRONMAN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
Since its inception in 1978 on the Island of O`ahu, the IRONMAN World Championship® triathlon has etched its name in history through stellar performances, inspirational participants, and emotional memories. In 1981, the race moved from the tranquil shores of Waikīkī to the barren lava fields of Kona on the Island of Hawai`i. The most iconic one-day sporting event in the world is the culmination of 40 global IRONMAN events with over 94,000 athletes around the world striving for one of the coveted qualifying slots. The 2021 edition of the event took place in St. George, Utah, in May 2022, becoming the first location to host the event outside of Hawai`i since its origins in 1978. After a two-year hiatus from Hawai`i due to COVID, the race returned to Kailua-Kona in 2022 and for the first time took place as a two-day event. The 2023 VinFast IRONMAN World Championship race continued with the two-day format, but with two different host locations and dates (Nice, France, in September and Kailua-Kona, Hawai`i, in October), to allow for a dedicated world championship race for women and dedicated world championship race for men. The cumulative event hosted over 4,000 athletes embarking on a 140.6-mile journey that presents the ultimate test of body, mind, and spirit to earn the title of IRONMAN World Champion. In 2024, the women will rotate to Nice, France, while the men return to Kailua Kona, Hawai`i, for their respective world championship host locations.

ABOUT THE IRONMAN 70.3 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
In 2006 the inaugural IRONMAN® 70.3® World Championship triathlon was held in Clearwater, Florida, becoming another test for the world’s elite triathletes. Since that auspicious beginning, the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship triathlon has grown in stature and popularity moving first to Henderson, Nevada, in 2011, where athletes encountered a more challenging terrain; and then to Mont-Tremblant, Quebec—its first stop on the new "global rotation" for the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship race. The event reached European soil for the first time ever in 2015, with Zell am See, Austria, hosting an epic and memorable event. In 2016, the race moved from the mountains to the beaches of the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia. In 2017, the race returned to the United States, taking place in Chattanooga, Tennessee, where it became a two-day event for the first time. In 2018, the event reached the African continent for the first time and was hosted in Nelson Mandela Bay in South Africa. Continuing the rotation, 2019 saw the French Riviera and Nice, France, play host to the ever-growing IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship event. After a year in which the event was not able to take place due to a global pandemic, the race returned in 2021 with over 3,500 athletes competing in St. George, Utah. The event again took place in St. George, Utah, returning to a two-day format on October 28-29, 2022. After a successful two-day event in Lahti, Finland, the race moved to Taupō, New Zealand, on December 14-15, 2024. The event comes to Spain for the first time in 2025 with Marbella earning the right to host the event. Historically, more than 200,000 athletes have participated annually in a series of qualifying races, consisting of over 100 global events. Hosting more than 6,000 athletes from around the world, participants in the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship triathlon have ranged in age from 18 to 85-plus.
