Breitling Chronomat

Breitling Chronomat in brief

The Chronomat name has been used at Breitling since the 1940s; the foundation of today's family, however, is the chronograph developed in 1984 for the Italian aerobatic team Frecce Tricolori. The model became the brand's emblem in the years when the mechanical chronograph was loved again.

The Chronomat renewed in 2020 brought back the Rouleaux bracelet of the 1980s. The raised riders on the rotating bezel make it easier to grip even with a glove. Alongside the chronographs, the family also includes time-only and ladies' models.
