Lionel Meylan and Breitling

Our editorial director Sophie Furley takes to the skies with Lionel Meylan

Buying a timepiece is always a magical experience, whether you are choosing a watch for yourself or a loved one. The lovely people at Lionel Meylan not only understand this better than anyone, but they have decided to make it even more memorable with a rather unusual gift. For every Breitling aviator watch that they sell in their boutiques in Vevey and Lausanne, they offer a flying experience in a 1930s plane, and the pilot is Lionel Meylan himself! Our editorial goes to their store in Vevey and then straight to the airfield to try the experience herself! See the video below for all the thrills and spills.
