Description
In the early 1940s, Willy Breitling envisioned a chronograph that combined maximum function and sophisticated style. He dubbed the result the Premier line, which still features today the smooth fixed bezel, twin-register dial, and applied Arabic numerals of its vintage iterations. Pushers are streamlined rectangular in shape to bring a modern touch.
The Premier B01 Chronograph 42 is accessible in diverse dial colours and case materials. It is presented on a choice of classic alligator leather strap or chic 7-row metal bracelet. Additionally, the Premier satisfies Willy Breitling’s strict technical standards with its COSC-certified Breitling Manufacture Calibre 01, which has been designed for maximum accuracy, reliability and function.
