BREITLING Super Chronomat B01 44 18k Red Gold Watch RB0136E31Q1R1

The BREITLING Super Chronomat B01 44 in 18k red gold is the epitome of bold sophistication, designed for those who demand both durability and style. Drawing inspiration from the 1983 Frecce Tricolori watch created for Italy's elite aerobatic squadron, this Super Chronomat blends rugged performance with elegant aesthetics, making it suitable for both daytime adventures and evening events.

Since the introduction of the original Chronomat in 1984, which marked the resurgence of mechanical Swiss watches following the quartz boom of the 1970s, Breitling has continued to push the boundaries of watchmaking. The Chronomat became a symbol of the brand's technical prowess and style, celebrating its centenary and challenging the sleek quartz models of the era. The Super Chronomat carries on this legacy with a modern twist, perfect for today’s explorers and adventurers.

The 44mm case of the Super Chronomat is distinguished by its rider tabs, which safeguard the sapphire crystal and can be used for both countdowns and countups, thanks to their interchangeable design. This model features a stainless-steel bezel with a ceramic insert—a first for the Chronomat line—enhancing both its functionality and style. Additionally, the watch is available with a Rouleaux-inspired rubber strap or a classic metal bracelet with a butterfly clasp. The innovative rubber strap, crafted using advanced injection molding techniques, boasts three distinct textures—matte, slick, and woven—to add remarkable depth and character to the watch.
