Breitling Super Chronomat B01 Titanium Grey & Black 44MM Watch

Presenting the Super Chronomat B01, Breitling's most assertive Chronomat to date, it perfectly balances robustness with style. Designed to make a bold statement, this impressively proportioned watch holds a significant place in Breitling's illustrious history, serving as a supercharged, all-purpose sports watch that seamlessly transitions from day to night. Meticulously crafted from highly polished and brushed titanium, this large-sized 44mm timepiece is tailored for the daring individuals of aerobatic squadrons. The smart grey dial, adorned with luminescent hour indexes and hands, ensures optimal visibility even in low-light conditions. Accentuating the dial are a slim blue chronograph second hand and a minute track encircling the outer edge, while three black-eye sub-dials at the core offer 1/4th second chronograph, 30-minute, and 12-hour totalizers. Finished with the iconic Breitling branding and safeguarded by a glare-proof, cambered sapphire crystal glass cover, the Super Chronomat remains true to the original Chronomat's design, with rider tabs protecting the sapphire crystal, interchangeable at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock for countdowns or count-ups. Enhancing its aesthetic and functionality, the titanium bezel features a black ceramic insert—a first for a Chronomat. The Breitling Manufacture 01 Calibre, housed within an ultra-sturdy case with a screw-locked crown, boasts water resistance to a depth of 200 meters. With a transparent sapphire crystal case back revealing its intricate craftsmanship, this movement, equipped with 47 jewels and beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, offers an impressive 70-hour power reserve. Completing the ensemble is a coordinating, high-resistance "Rouleaux" inspired titanium bracelet, secured with a folding clasp fastening for ultimate comfort and easy release. Hugh Rice are an official Breitling stockist, and all watches are packaged in a branded presentation box, making it ideal for gifting. The Chronomat played a significant role in Breitling's centenary celebration, marking the return of the mechanical chronograph that shaped the brand's global reputation. Today, it continues to epitomize sport-chic elegance, empowering everyday superheroes in their pursuit of the next great adventure.
