Breitling has pulled the covers off the new best CA Breitling Chronomat replica watches, a collection that first saw the light in the 1980s. The name it took on nearly 40 years ago is a portmanteau of “chronograph for mathematics,” first used for several timepieces from Breitling in the 1940s.
However, in 1984, the “Chronomat” would come to define a sports watch from the Swiss Manufacture that boasted both a chronograph function and automatic movement.
The Chronomat 01 First Launched in 1984
When the Breitling Chronomat was first launched, it bucked the onslaught of quartz on the marketplace in the 1970s. Eschewing the “battery-operated” approach, Breitling went bold and offered mechanical Swiss-made watches, rare because few watch companies had survived into the new decade, rare because most who survived did not feel mechanical cheap Breitling fake watches in all its self-winding artistry could still appeal to the customer.
Inspired by the Frecce Tricolori watch, which had been developed and launched in 1983 in collaboration with the famed Italian aerial squadron of the same name, the Chronomat of 1984 marked a hundred years of Breitling’s founding.
It was quite figuratively, the triumphant raising of the flag for the Swiss watchmaker who had built its reputation of the mechanical chronograph.
Not Just Aviation; Land, Air and Sea
Perhaps it was down to a one-two combo with AAA Canada replica Breitling‘s other iconic watches, the Navitimer, and the inspired creation of the Chronomat based on the Italian flight operators, which contributed to the brand’s strong and proud association with aviation.
The Iconic Breitling Navitimer 1 Collection
Launched in 1952, Breitling’s Navitimer 1 has its place in the annals of watchmaking. Instantly recognizable with its circular slide rule on its bezel, the timepiece performed a range of calculations relevant to aviation, and was quickly adopted by pilots. This relationship was especially embraced by the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), with a successful partnership propelling it to greater awareness and heights, and eventually, a warm reception by the general public and watch buyers.
In 2018, under the leadership of the new incoming CEO Georges Kern, the Navitimer collection adds eight new references, offering a variety of sizes, dial options, bracelets, and straps.
However, the Chronomat would cross over from air to land and sea. In the late 80s and early 90s, the Chronomat’s tachymeter would see it embraced by Formula 1 racing teams, and the reversible feature of the rider tabs on its rotating bezel, well suited the countdown nature of sailing regattas.
Countdown to the Start
Sailing yachts competing in a regatta cannot, unlike race cars, line-up at a starting line due to the nature of the open seas and winds. Instead, the boats need to manoeuvre themselves behind a start line that is defined by an imaginary line drawn between two buoys. A gun or cannon shot signifies a countdown to the beginning of a race, oftentimes 10 minutes, and thus begins the countdown when teams need to manage their timing, momentum, speed and direction to cross the line as close to zero as possible. Too early and they incur a penalty. Too late and they have lost valuable positioning against a competitor.
Continuing with its legacy and versatility as an all-purpose sports watch for all mediums, the new Breitling Chronomat retains several features of its namesake from the 1980s. In addition to the rider tabs on its rotating bezel, we are also drawn to the Rouleaux bracelet with a butterfly clasp, and its timeless appeal; a perfect example of the modern-retro style and design that the Brand now celebrates.
Key Features
The rider tabs located on the bezel of the Chronomat at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock, true to the original, are interchangeable, so the wearer can use them either for a “count up” or “count down” function.
Each chronograph in the new collection is powered by the Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01, an in-house mechanical movement that delivers an impressive power reserve of about 70 hours. When Breitling launched its in-house Manufacture Caliber 01 more than ten years ago, it was introduced in the Chronomat 01.
The hands of every Chronomat B01 42 are coated with Super-LumiNova®, a luminescent material that enhances legibility in all lighting conditions. All of the models except for the Chronomat Frecce Tricolori Limited Edition have a red chronograph second hand, which also contributes to easy readability.
Like all perfect Breitling copy watches, the Chronomats are COSC-certified chronometers, an independent confirmation of their precision. All of the models are water-resistant to 20 bar (200 meters).
