BREITLING introduces new member to the Navitimer 1 Family

Breitling adds new chronographs to the Navitimer 1 family with some impressive variations of diameter 46,43 and 41 respectively along with 8 bracelets options.

Since its release in 1952, the Breitling Navitimer has been one of the world’s most beloved chronographs. With some brilliant additions to its Navitimer 1 family, Breitling is introducing a true watchmaking legend to a whole new generation.

The Legendary Future: The Navitimer 1 Collection

The Navitimer 1 family has been extended to include eight new references, whose range of sizes, dial options, bracelets, and straps ensures that there is a perfect Navitimer 1 for even the most demanding of wrists.

Navitimer 1 B01 Chronograph 46

The Navitimer 1 B01 Chronograph 46 makes a bold style statement with its impressive 46 millimeter18  k red gold case. It is available in two configurations: one with an anthracite dial and a black alligator leather strap, and another with a silver dial and a brown leather strap. The watches are equipped with Breitling’s legendary bidirectional rotating bezel with a circular slide rule. The hour and minute hands are coated with Super-LumiNova®, which makes them easy to read in all lighting conditions.

Both interpretations of the Navitimer 1 B01 Chronograph 46 have contrasting subdials (the “inverse panda look”), an indication of the extraordinary movement inside. They are powered by the Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01, an automatic movement that delivers a power reserve of more than 70 hours. These COSCcertified chronometers feature transparent sapphire casebacks.

Navitimer 1 B01 Chronograph 43

The Navitimer 1 B01 Chronograph 43 has been crafted in four compelling versions. The most elegant of these features an 18 k red gold case with a blue dial on a black alligator leather strap. Equally eye-catching is a stainless-steel and 18 k red gold model with a Stratos Gray dial, which is also presented on a black alligator leather strap. There are also two robust stainless-steel versions: one with a blue dial and a black alligator leather strap, and another with a silver dial and a classic Navitimer stainless-steel bracelet.

Like all Breitling chronographs powered by the Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01, the Navitimer 1 B01 Chronograph 43 watches feature contrasting subdials. The hour and minute hands are coated with Super-LumiNova®. Each Navitimer 1 B01 Chronograph 43 model is water-resistant up to 3 bar (30 meters/100 feet). These outstanding chronographs are equipped with a bidirectional rotating bezel fitted with Breitling’s iconic circular slide rule.

Navitimer 1 Chronograph 41

Fans of smaller watches will be drawn to the Navitimer 1 Chronograph 41. It is available in steel and 18 k red gold with a red gold bidirectional rotating bezel, presented with a black dial and a black leather strap. There is also a striking stainless-steel version with a silver dial and brown leather strap. The movement at the heart of the Navitimer 1 Chronograph 41 is the COSC-certified Breitling Caliber 13 chronometer, which is wound automatically by a unilaterally acting ball-bearing rotor, delivering a power reserve of more than 42 hours. These watches feature a screwed stainless-steel caseback. The hour and minute hands are coated with Super-LumiNova® and can be read easily through the Navitimer 1 Chronograph 41’s convex sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on both sides. These watches are water-resistant to 3 bar (30 meters/100 feet).

Maintaining a Legacy Breitling is committed to making great wristwatches that perform brilliantly in any environment, but we will never forget our historic link to aviation. For many years, we were largely defined by our timepieces for pilots, and we are proud that the stunning chronographs introduced here remind the world that at the heart of every Breitling watch there is an unmistakable trace of Navitimer DNA.
