Breitling

Breitling, founded in 1884, is a Swiss luxury watch brand. It is popular among aviators and pilots who often use the Breitling chronometers under difficult and challenging conditions.

The Breitling BR01 is the movement of the Breitling Chronomat 01, Breitling’s premiere attempt at producing an entire watch in-house. The Breitling Chronomat GMT Limited and the Breitling Chronomat 44 GMT are equipped with the Breitling B04.
