Breitling Chronomat B01
New Movement, New Status
(21)
By Gear Patrol Reader Jason Pitsch:
Breitling recently launched their new Chronomat B01. Announced prior to Baselworld, this chronograph features Breitling’s first 100% in-house movement; Not only is the watch an outstanding timepiece, but the integration of Breitling’s new movement is a huge accomplishment, vaulting the company into the elite ranks of true manufacturers.
The column-wheel type chronograph movement is accurate to 1/4th of a second, is COSC certified, has a 70 hour power reserve, and is water-resistant to 500 meters. The B01 boasts no shortage of configurations either, making it sure to suit any taste. Models are available in steel, steel + gold, and 18K rose gold, on a bracelet or strap, and with dial color choices such as Antarctica White, Carbon Black, Riviera Blue, and Sierra Silver (just to name a few).

Great looking watch!
Sweet watch.
Breitling? Emphatic "Meh".
Wow - looks like Breitling has some attractive pieces this year.
This is a FANTASTIC looking watch. It will likely join my list of potential next watch buys. (The list is long and doesn't get shorter very often though…)

Just bought this baby in steel with black dial…….love this legendary watch so much already ! Retail was 6150 euro, but paid a lot less from an official listed retailer
