A bold and impressively proportioned timepiece which holds a significant place in the Breitling’s history, the Chronomat B01 42 reflects a universe dedicated to performance, sporting feats and surpassing personal limits. This chronograph, with its powerful and unique style, is an authentic instrument available for all explorers. Expertly crafted from highly polished and brushed stainless steel with 18CT rose-gold elements, this mid-sized 42 MM watch is inspired by the Frecce Tricolori chronograph, which had been developed and launched in 1983. Inside, the smart anthracite grey dial is adorned with rose-gold luminescent indexes and hands for high visibility in dark climates. Featuring a slim chronograph second hand and second counters surrounding the outer rim. Three black-eye sub-dials complete the dial’s core, with 1/4th second chronograph, 30-minute and 12-hour totalizers. Finished with the iconic Breitling branding and protected with a glare-proof, cambered sapphire crystal glass cover. Complemented by a unidirectional ratcheted 18CT bezel, with engraved graduation markings set on the bezel that lend a technical and original touch of style. The Breitling 01 Calibre is protected by an ultra-sturdy case, with a screw-locked crown and water-resistant to a depth of 200 M. It’s finished with a transparent sapphire crystal case back that allows you to see the intricate craftsmanship within, powered with 47 jewels and beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, with an impressive 70-hour power reserve. The co-ordinating, high-resistance, steel “Rouleaux” mix metal bracelet secures to the wrist with a deployment clasp fastening, for the ultimate comfort and easy release.
