Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph 41 – Ref. AB0139241C2A1 (Stainless Steel Bracelet)

A timeless icon reborn, the Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph 41 carries forward the brand’s signature pilot‑watch legacy — now refined in a sleek 41 mm form factor. This edition, featuring a captivating ice‑blue sunburst dial and polished stainless steel bracelet, strikes a perfect balance between aviation utility and refined aesthetics.

Encased in brushed and polished stainless steel, the watch houses a bidirectional notched bezel with the Navitimer’s iconic slide‑rule function, historically used for flight calculations. The harmonious dial layout presents three contrasting black chronograph subdials (elapsed seconds, 30 minutes, 12 hours) and a framed date at 6 o’clock. Applied baton indices and luminous hands ensure clarity across lighting conditions, while the red-tipped chronograph hand nods to its precision timing heritage.

Powering the timepiece is Breitling’s in-house Caliber B01, an automatic chronograph movement with 47 jewels and ~70 hours power reserve — a robust engine beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour with the esteemed Hallmark of Geneva-quality craftsmanship. The sapphire caseback reveals the movement’s meticulous finishes and signature gold rotor (on select variants).

Wearability is further elevated by the integrated stainless steel bracelet, engineered for comfort and elegance. This model offers water resistance to 30 m (3 bar), a non-locking but gasket-sealed crown, and a glare-proofed domed sapphire crystal front and back for both durability and visual depth.
