WESTERN BUREAU:

Golf is a game of skill requiring precision and accuracy and Breitling's hand-made movement in their watches are world-renowned for these qualities.

All Breitling Swiss Chronograph movements are made by hand, and undergo rigorous testing to qualify as individually certified chronometers. It came as no surprise when local golfers who turned up at the Cinnamon Hill Golf Course in Rose Hall, Montego Bay last week, were greeted with an imposingly gorgeous watch, the first to be erected on any course in Jamaica.

"Breitling and the game of Golf go hand in hand and stroke by magnificent stroke," declared Robert Ames, director of golf, Cinnamon Hill.

Ames and his thousands of golfers received the gift from Breitling's agent in Jamaica, Denny Chandiram of Bijoux Jewelers, located at the Shoppes at Rose Hall.

"We are proud to announce that we are partners in the quest for excellence both on the golf course and in fine Swiss timing," boasted Chandiram, as he handed over the watch.

"There is nothing so bad as being late for that all-important tee time. At Cinnamon Hill, that will never happen as the magnificent Breitling watch proudly displays the correct time for you so you know exactly how much time 'till the ultimate golf experience begins," said Ames.
