Between 1924 and 1930, Bentley won the famous Le Mans 24 Hours race five times. This was the era of the legendary Bentley Boys. As a partner to the British car manufacturer, Breitling has chosen to mark the occasion by issuing a limited series dedicated to this top-level competition.
The Bentley Boys
Gifted sportsmen, genuine amateurs and high-spirited ladies’ men, the Bentley Boys raced primarily for honor, fired by a taste for challenges. For four consecutive years, from 1927 to 1930, they won the race in great style. Their names were “Benjy” Benjafield, a Harley Street doctor; Tim Birkin, the best British driver of the period; Sammy Davis, chief editor of The Autocar magazine; Bernard Rubin and Glen Kidston… But the most famous of all was Woolf Barnato, a multimillionaire South African diamond merchant. This flamboyant figure, who did much to establish the legend of the Bentley Boys in the public imagination,won the Le Mans 24 Hours race three years in a row. In 1928, he came first with Rubin. In 1929 with Tim Birkin at the wheel of a Speed 6, he dominated the race from start to finish, scarcely rivaled by a threesome of 4.5 Litre Bentleys driving a hundred or so kilometers behind them. In 1930, he won an historic triumph for his last race.
