Two models were announced, “MB 24 (MB 24)” and “RAYTRACER24 (Ray Tracer 24)”.

The unisex design “RAY TRACER 24” is available from 22.5 cm to 29.0 cm and is priced at 10,780 yen (tax included).

It will be released sequentially as soon as it arrives at FILA stores, mainly at FILA shops and FILA’s official online store.

Key visuals by Fellsius

Fellsius, who created the key visuals, is a multi-creator based in Tokyo.

TREKKIE TRAX is a Japan dance music label launched in 2012. In the 10 years since the label’s inception, more than 180 singles and albums have been released, and a total of about 900 songs have been highly acclaimed not only in Japan but also around the world.

Fellsius debuted on the label in 2017 with “Fellsius – Boss House” and has released numerous singles and EPs to date. With the theme of “Abstract × Dance Music”, we aim to deliver a new musical experience.

Mr. Fellsius has always been active in the style of comprehensively directing visuals and sounds into a single work.

In this tie-up, while emphasizing the main motifs such as RAY TRACER’s cherry blossoms and MB’s dragons, he also incorporated plenty of his favorite textures and effects. I also took the time to choose my own compositions that would fit those visuals perfectly.

FILA’s official SNS will also release an image movie. The content allows you to enjoy items that blend into the world view, including videos and tracks, and is said to be “a must-hear not only for wearing but also for the sound of wanting to dance while wearing them.”

Breitling Japan has unveiled a limited-edition Avenger B01 Chronograph 44 Blue Impulse Japan Limited to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the return of the Air Self-Defense Force Blue Impulse to Matsushima Air Base. It is a mechanical watch and is priced at 1,221,000 yen. It is a model limited to Japan and sold in a sales volume of 111 pieces.

This is the seventh collaboration model between Breitling and Blue Impulse. This product commemorates the 10th anniversary of Blue Impulse’s return to Matsushima Air Base during the reconstruction of the Great East Japan Earthquake. As for the quantity, it is limited to Japan to 111 after the official unit name of Blue Impulse “11th Squadron”.

It features a blue dial inspired by the Blue Impulse T-4 aircraft. At 3 o’clock, the team’s emblem is displayed, and the T-4 is printed on the sapphire crystal back.

The watch is based on Breitling’s new Avenger B01 Chronograph. Designed for jet pilots, it features a specification that can withstand the harsh cockpit environment. The 60-minute bezel features four rider tabs, inheriting the iconic design of Breitling’s pilot’s watches. It features a new square button designed for smooth operation.

From Breitling’s men’s models, the top 5 models with the highest sales amount will be announced. Again, it was a result that showed the overwhelming popularity of the brand’s icons, “Navitimer” and “Chronomat”. Although there is a large number of units in stock, there are many models limited to Japan, which shows how well the company knows the tastes of the Japan market.

Breitling’s men’s models announce the top 5 models you care about

Founded in 1884, Breitling has made a name for itself as a prestigious manufacturer of pilot’s watches. The company, especially in recent years, has attracted the attention of many enthusiasts by paying homage to the classics of the past while developing sophisticated collections that are modern and sophisticated.

In addition to the iconic Navitimer and Chronomat chronographs, the company is pleased to announce the top five sales figures for men’s models from its extensive lineup, including the highly waterproof Superocean and the elegant Premier.

5th place: Superocean Heritage B20 Automatic 42 Japan Limited

In fifth place is the Superocean Heritage B20 Automatic 42 Japan Limited. The “Superocean Heritage” is a collection with a design inspired by the first “Superocean”, a diver’s watch that appeared in the 1950s, and features an arrow-shaped hour hand and a simple round case without a crown guard.

Breitling Superocean Heritage B20 Automatic 42 Japan Limited
The ice blue dial is an elegant Japan limited model. The simple design, inspired by the original “Super Ocean”, will be active both on and off.
Automatic (Cal. B20). 26 stones. 28,800 vibrations per hour. Power reserve about 70 hours. SS case (diameter 42 mm, thickness 14.3 mm). 200m water resistance. Limited to Japan. 819,500 yen (tax included).

This lineup, which is a limited edition model in Japan, combines an ice blue dial with a black ceramic bezel insert to create a refreshing impression.

The movement is a Caliber B20 based on the Cal. MT5612 supplied by Kenissi, a Tudor subsidiary. As a result, it has acquired the high accuracy of a C.O.S.C. certified chronometer, excellent impact resistance, and a power reserve of about 70 hours. Tudor and Breitling have a cooperative relationship with each other to supply each other’s movements, with Breitling supplying Tudor with the Cal. 01 automatic chronograph movement.

4th Place: Super Chronomat B01 44 Japan Edition

The Super Chronomat is based on Breitling’s flagship Chronomat, with more massive elements. The bezel, push buttons, and crown are made of ceramic material, and it has a powerful case with a diameter of 44 mm.

Breitling Super Chronomat B01 44 Japan Edition
The powerful design of the “Super Chronomat” is summarized in an elegant coloring. The chronograph second hand and flange are accented with red.
Automatic (Cal.01). 47 stones. 28,800 vibrations per hour. Power reserve about 70 hours. SS case (diameter 44 mm, thickness 14.4 mm). 200m water resistance. Limited to Japan. 1,270,500 yen (tax included).

In the “Super Chronomat B01 44 Japan Edition” selected this time, these ceramic parts, dial, and rubber strap are unified in white, giving it both strength and elegance.

The fact that it is all-white but does not give a blurry impression is probably due to the presence of the chronograph seconds hand in the center painted in red and the 1/100 scale of the flange. The combination of white and red is reminiscent of the Japanese flag and gives a faint sense of Japan exclusiveness. The case, which contrasts with the glossy ceramic parts and is based on a satin finish, also brings sharpness to the whole.

The movement is a caliber 01 of the company’s own mechanical automatic chronograph. It has high accuracy and durability, and is easy to maintain.

3rd place: Navitimer B01 Chronograph 41 Japan Edition

From the Navitimer Collection, which is twinned with the Chronomat, the “Navitimer B01 Chronograph 41 Japan Edition” is ranked. This is a Japan limited model with a white mother-of-pearl dial. Because mother-of-pearl is a natural material, each piece has a different expression. You should be able to feel more attached to it as your own one.

Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph 41 Japan Edition
The mother-of-pearl dial adds elegance to the Japan limited edition model of the Navitimer B01 Chronograph 41. The anthracite-colored in-dial and red-gold-colored dial give a warm impression.
Automatic (Cal.01). 47 stones. 28,800 vibrations per hour. Power reserve about 70 hours. SS case (diameter 41 mm, thickness 13.6 mm). Water resistant to 3 ATM. Limited to Japan. 1,353,000 yen (tax included).

The Navitimer has its origins in professional pilot’s watches. In this work, while retaining the characteristics of functions such as the rotation slide rule and chronograph, the dressy taste is also strengthened. This is strongly evoked by the anthracite-coloured in-dial and the red-gold-coloured hands and indexes, combined with a mother-of-pearl dial that sparkles in the light. The polished pilot bracelet also shimmers with every movement of the wrist. From the see-through back, it is possible to appreciate the reliable in-house movement, the Cal.01.

2nd Place: Chronomat B01 42 Japan Edition

In second place is the Chronomat B01 42 Japan Edition. In 2020, the Chronomat was relaunched as an elegant sports watch that renews its rugged image. This work is a model that allows you to fully enjoy its charm.

Breitling Chronomat B01 42 Japan Edition
One with a distinctive black mother-of-pearl dial. The company often uses mother-of-pearl dials as Japan limited models, all of which have been well received. This game is one of those options that you can’t go wrong with.
Automatic (Cal.01). 47 stones. 28,800 vibrations per hour. Power reserve about 70 hours. SS case (diameter 42 mm, thickness 15.1 mm). 200m water resistance. Limited to Japan. 1,386,000 yen (tax included).

This work, which is sold exclusively in Japan, uses a black mother-of-pearl dial that further enhances the elegance of the current chronomat. At first glance, it looks like a sporty black dial, but depending on how the light hits it, it sometimes shines intricately. The black-colored in-dial has a circle-shaped groove that brings a sense of condensation to the dial and improves visibility.

The 42 mm diameter case is equipped with the Rouleau bracelet, which symbolizes the first generation Chronomat, and provides a smooth fit. In addition to the chronograph with a 12-hour totalizer, it also has outstanding functionality such as a unidirectional rotating bezel that can measure elapsed time, a date display, and water resistance to 200 meters. It is powered by the company’s flagship mechanical automatic movement, the Cal.01.

1st place: Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43

And the first place is the “Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43”. The Japan limited model has continued so far, but this work is a regular model that will be developed globally. Looking back at the rankings, the two most iconic collections of the company, the Chronomat and the Navitimer, were in a fierce battle.

Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43
This is the only one of the top 5 that is not a Japan limited model. The 43mm diameter case gives it the feel of a pilot’s watch, but the refreshing ice blue dial neutralizes its excessive ruggedness.
Automatic (Cal.01). 47 stones. 28,800 vibrations per hour. Power reserve about 70 hours. SS case (diameter 43 mm, thickness 13.6 mm). Water resistant to 3 ATM. 1,243,000 yen (tax included).

In this work, a powerful 43mm diameter case is used to improve the visibility, which is essential for pilot’s watches. The biggest feature is the ice blue dial, which gives a refreshing impression.

In 22 years, celebrating its 70th anniversary, the Navitimer has undergone a steady update, albeit without major design changes. At 12 o’clock, the AOPA logo was reinstated, the tachymeter around the dial was eliminated, and the case and parts of the bracelet were finished with a satin finish, giving the collection a more sophisticated look. In addition, colorful dial variations such as blue, green, and salmon have been added, providing a wide range of choices.

From its birth to the present, the Navitimer has continued to evolve without major changes, and it is a model worthy of the company’s history and innovation.
