An important model in Breitling’s history: the Chronomat Collection
Based on the Frecce Tricolori Chronograph announced in 1983 in collaboration with the Italy Air Force, the Chronomat was born in ’84. At the time, thin quartz watches were the norm, but Breitling had the audacity to compete with mechanical watches. The success of this model established the mechanical chronograph as the brand’s traditional Thailand.
In 2020, it was remodeled and evolved into a versatile watch that can be used in any scene. Two years later, the Super Chronomat series was introduced, with its impressive 44mm case. The new Chronomat collection features a non-curved lug case, an iconic bezel with four rider tabs, and a distinctive “rouleau” bracelet.
This work is a limited edition model that expresses more elegant luxury in the Chronomat collection.
