Chronomat, its English name is easy to understand. It is a simple combination of the two words “Chronograph” and “automatic”. The replica Breitling Chronomat watch occupies an important position in the history of Breitling. The series was launched in 1984, when quartz watches were popular, but Breitling went against the trend and specially created a chronograph flight watch with a mechanical movement through cooperation with the Italian Air Force Tricolore Flying Team. It was this bold attempt that made the Chronomat an iconic watch of that era. More Breitling Chronomat clone watches.
Since its birth, Breitling Chronomat has had two iconic design elements. The first is that on the chronograph bezel, you can clearly see a special raised metal block design with digital scales, a total of four, which is used to protect the watch mirror. My understanding is that if your watch falls directly, the first thing that touches the hard object must be the metal block, not the watch mirror hitting the ground. The second is the special roller ball bracelet used in the watch, which is commonly known as the “bullet chain”.
The new generation of replica Breitling Breitling Chronomat perfectly inherits these two characteristic designs, and at the same time it also focuses on strengthening the integrated design of the watch head and bracelet. Therefore, the new mechanical chronograph will give people the feeling that the design is still a bit leaning towards the style of luxury sports watches, but it is more versatile, which we will talk about later. In addition, the excellent appearance design can also make it perfectly compatible with leather and rubber straps, and can handle different styles. For example, luxury sports watches really need the supplement of multi-material straps. In terms of the case treatment of the watch, large-area brushing is combined with polishing of the angular edge details, and multiple modifications are alternating. This is actually a design that highlights the luxury attributes of the watch.
Compared to the large size of the old model, the replica Breitling Chronomat B01 42 has a smaller diameter of 42mm, which is more suitable for daily wear. It has returned to a small diameter from the original trend of huge 47mm mechanical chronograph watches. The design is also more refined and coordinated than the old model, but it also retains the tough design essence of the old model. I think Breitling has done a very good job in this regard.
Breitling Chronomat B01 42 offers a wide range of dial styles, especially the popular color dial design in recent years. In other words, it has all the colors you want, including green dial, ice blue dial, panda dial, and the popular salmon dial design. Breitling’s self-produced B01 automatic chronograph movement has a unique combination of columnar wheels and vertical clutch technology, and has a special movement board layout structure exclusive to B01. The watch adopts a transparent back design, through which you can see the beautiful movement of the movement. The upper deck has Geneva patterns, and the performance is certified by the Swiss Official Observatory (COSC). The swing frequency reaches 28,800 times per hour, which can provide the watch with 70 hours of power reserve.
