    The sports heart-throb is the luxury watch manufacturer's new poster boy

    David Beckham strikes a pose as the new face of Breitling Watches in the luxury brand's latest campaign.

    Wearing a leather biker jacket and with a bag flung over his shoulder, the sports superstar stares off into the distance having just disembarked a private jet in the Californian desert. Quiffed hair and a flash of his silver Breitling watch on his left wrist complete his advertising campaign look.

    The images, shot by American photographer Anthony Mandler, are part of the Swiss watchmaker's latest campaign for its new Transocean Chronograph Unitime worldtime watch. The design is the ultimate travel watch thanks to its double disk enabling permanent readings of the time in all 24 timezones, and its user-friendly crown-operated correction system.
