Breitling just released six new Premier Chronographs equipped with the latest iteration of the Manufacture Caliber 01, updated in 2022 with a trimmer profile and more compact oscillating weight. A follow-up to the Premier Heritage Collection introduced in 2021, the Premier B01 Chronograph 42 features a 42-mm case with streamlined rectangular pushers, a smooth fixed bezel and a sapphire crystal case back. The vintage-inspired dial has lume filled hour and minute hands, a date window at six o’clock, and tone-on-tone sub-dials with chronograph minutes at 3 o’clock and running seconds at 9 o’clock. This release includes five stainless-steel models with a salmon, blue, green, black, or cream dial, and an 18K red gold variation with a classic cream dial. Buyers can choose between an alligator leather strap or a sleek 7-row metal bracelet available in stainless-steel or red gold, to match the case.
