★★★★★Editorial rating 4.5/5Ref. AB0145171C1P1 · 42 mm

The Premier B01 Chronograph 42 by Breitling is an elegant watch for deliberate appearances. The 42 mm stainless steel case houses the Breitling B01 calibre (automatic, approx. 70 hrs power reserve). Sapphire glass and 100 m water resistance place the watch in practical terms; it is worn on the leather strap, in the office as with a suit. Refined, but not delicate in appearance.
