Breitling Premier,The Rebirth Of A Replica Watches

　　After the Navitimer 8,Breitling continues its stylistic metamorphosis with its new collection.

　　The brand is reviving one of its flagship watches,the Premier.The new line consists of two chronographs,a three-hand small seconds watch,and a day-date watch,all available in several versions.

　　It was the 1940s.Willy Breitling had already built a solid reputation in the world of aviation,adorning the wrists of the British Royal Air Force.

　　Building on this reputation,Breitling,which until then had operated in the air,dared to make a bold move.

　　The brand with the capital B decided to create an urban watch,both elegant and sporty,for the civilian world.In 1943,the Premier was born.

　　Flanked by a smaller case,between 36 and 38 millimeters,often in gold,it featured,for the very first time in Breitling’s history,the product name on the dial.

　　A complete turnaround on the road to success.

Back to the Future

　　Almost 80 years later,Breitling revisits a symbolic episode in its history.

　　With the new-generation Premier collection,the Maison draws on its heritage to create five watches directly inspired by the original.

　　A return to its roots,desired by Georges Kern,former number 2 of the Richemont group,now at the helm of the watchmaking Maison.

　　New logo,reduced collection…the least we can say is that the newly appointed leader has really kicked things off.

　　A small revolution brought about with the launch of the Navitimer 8 last spring.

　　With the Premier,the watchmaker continues its quest for reinvention.

　　The new Premier line moves away from the Breitling plastic and returns to a more refined silhouette.More authentic.Simpler.

　　A sobriety embraced by Breitling…despite the most conservative opinions.

Five Iconic Models Replica Watches

　　Three chronographs and two automatics make up the collection.

　　Larger than their predecessor,the Premiers are reincarnated in a case ranging between 40 and 42 millimeters in diameter.

　　The B01 Chronograph 42 is undoubtedly the star of the collection.

　　It is powered by the Breitling B01 manufacture movement,one of the most sophisticated on the market,which offers a 70-hour power reserve.

　　Its 42 mm stainless steel case is available with a dial with two counters(minutes,seconds)in dark blue or silver.

　　We love its twin,the Bentley Racing Green version,whose green dial is directly inspired by the dashboard of the 1930s Blower Supercharged.

　　Next to it,the Premier Chronograph 42,with its Breitling caliber 13(over 48 hours of power reserve),is nothing to be ashamed of.

　　More athletic,it features three minute and second counters,a date window at 6 o’clock,and its logo is revealed at 3 o’clock.

　　Two automatics complete the collection.Slightly less sporty,they remain faithful to the original model.
