Revive the sophisticated charm of mid-century luxury with the Breitling Premier B01 Chronograph 42 Bentley Edition. Moving away from traditional, instrument-heavy pilot cockpits, Willy Breitling’s original 1940s Premier line was dedicated entirely to elegance and style. This modern reference elegantly adapts that heritage to celebrate Breitling’s long-term partnership with Bentley Motors, offering a stunning, upscale look tailored perfectly for the racetrack or the boardroom.
The hallmark of the Ref. AB0118A11L1X1 is its mesmerizing British Racing Green dial. This rich, deep tone has been a symbol of British automotive triumph for over a century and is complemented here by a symmetric bi-compax layout featuring contrasting black sub-dials (running seconds at 9 o’clock and a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock). A matching black inner bezel housing a tachymeter scale frames the dial face flawlessly. Complete with elegant baton hands, a red-tipped chronograph seconds needle, and an anti-reflective cambered sapphire crystal, the watch delivers incredible legibility and vintage character.
Housed beneath the dial is Breitling’s flagship mechanical engine: the Manufacture Caliber 01. This in-house, automatic column-wheel chronograph movement is visible through a transparent sapphire exhibition caseback, which proudly bears an engraved Bentley logo inscription. Operating at a high frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, this COSC-certified chronometer provides an exceptional 70-hour power reserve, allowing you to safely set it aside for a weekend away without skipping a beat.
The polished 42mm stainless steel case features a unique design detail: a specialized engraved “Bentley” plate seamlessly embedded into the left side of the case middle—inspired by the dashboard architecture of classic vintage Bentley models. This specific execution comes fitted on a luxurious, curved green calfskin leather strap adorned with striking white stitching and secured with a stainless steel folding clasp. Boasting a robust 100-meter water resistance rating, the Breitling Premier Bentley is a masterful heritage statement for the collector who demands mechanical perfection and timeless luxury.
