Back in the early 1940s, Willy Breitling had a vision for a post-war era where practicality would give way to unbridled optimism. He set out to design a chronograph watch that was both functional and exceptionally elegant, suitable for any occasion. He called it the Premier, promising ‘unsurpassed taste.’
When crafting the modern Premier series, Breitling retained the design details of its vintage counterpart. The watch boasts a sleek fixed bezel, a dual sub-dial design, streamlined rectangular pushers, and 3D Arabic numerals. The Premier B01 Chronograph 42 offers a range of dial colors and is powered by the in-house 01 automatic mechanical movement, beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour. The crown is non-screw locked with dual gaskets, and the sapphire crystal glass provides superior protection.
With a date window that matches the original in dimension and saturation, and an original folding clasp, this watch never compromises on technical excellence. The Premier B01 Chronograph 42 is designed to deliver supreme precision, reliability, and functionality.
It’s a watch made not just to tell time, but to tell a story—one of tradition and timeless design that appeals to both watch enthusiasts and those new to the world of fine timepieces. Quite the timeless elegance, don’t you think?
