Breitling has introduced updated versions of its Chronomat watches with refined proportions and a more integrated bracelet. The new models retain core design elements like the rider-tab bezel while improving wearability.
The Chronomat B01 42 chronograph features a 42mm case that measures 45.8mm lug-to-lug and 13.77mm thick, down from previous dimensions. It uses the in-house Breitling 01 automatic chronograph movement with a 70-hour power reserve and triple-register display. A simpler bezel construction reduces external components while keeping the signature raised tabs at 15-minute positions.
