Breitling Chronomat 42 B01 42 – RB0134101L1S1

The Breitling Chronomat B01 42 RB0134101L1S1 is a statement of luxury and precision, housed in a 42 mm 18k red gold case with a polished finish and a unidirectional ratcheted bezel featuring the iconic rider tabs that double as grip enhancers and design signatures. The watch presents a green sunray-brushed dial with three recessed black chronograph counters positioned at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock, paired with luminescent red-gold hands and applied hour markers for maximum legibility in all conditions. Beneath the sapphire crystal lies Breitling’s in-house Caliber B01 chronograph movement, a COSC-certified automatic caliber delivering a 70-hour power reserve, column-wheel chronograph control, vertical clutch mechanism, and operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour with 47 jewels. Its 1/4th second chronograph, 30-minute, and 12-hour totalizers ensure flawless timekeeping, while the date window at 6 o’clock integrates seamlessly with the chronograph layout. The case is secured with a screw-locked crown (two gaskets) and fitted with a transparent sapphire crystal caseback, allowing an unimpeded view of the beautifully finished movement. With a thickness of 15.1 mm, this watch offers presence without sacrificing wearability, and is engineered to withstand 200 meters (660 feet) of water resistance, making it equally at home in formal, casual, and sporting environments.
