The B01 caliber is one milestone in Breitling’s long history of excellent chronographs. But don’t forget: the Premier is about impeccable style. The 42mm case fits excellently on the wrist, thanks to its smart ergonomics and fairly slender (for a chronograph) height of 13.6mm. Five of the new watches are cased in steel, while one is truly lush in 18K red gold. The final piece of the Premier puzzle is the dial.
Breitling has favored the classics for this debut collection, offering black, blue, salmon, green and cream dials — all with tonally matched subdials and applied dial hardware. The dial design is classical and restrained, with finely printed numerals, an outer tachymeter scale, a well-integrated date at six, and polished Arabic hour markers. The main hour hands are in the syringe style, elegantly pointed, and generously filled with luminous material. The cream and black dials are the most traditional, while the blue and green have a more contemporary flavor. However, the standout for many will be the salmon, a warm and pleasing hue that only accentuates the vintage flair of the Premier. The red gold model is offered with a cream dial that plays very nicely with the warm metal case.
