Breitling’s latest release, the Navitimer B01 Chronograph 46 North American Limited Edition, brings a fresh take on a classic. Limited to 300 pieces and available exclusively in the U.S. and Canada, this timepiece offers a striking two-tone design, combining a stainless steel case with an 18k red gold bezel. The 46mm case is perfectly sized for those who like a bold wrist presence, while the blue dial with red accents pays homage to Americana, adding a subtle pop of color that stands out.
At the heart of the Navitimer B01 Chronograph 46 is Breitling’s in-house Caliber B01 automatic movement. This movement boasts a COSC-certified chronometer status, 70-hour power reserve, and precise chronograph function powered by a column wheel and vertical clutch. It’s known for its reliability and is regarded as one of the top mass-produced chronograph movements on the market.
The design elements—red gold hands and hour markers, black chronograph registers, and a date window at 6 o’clock—are quintessentially Navitimer but feel elevated in this limited edition. The domed sapphire crystal provides clear visibility, while the display-style caseback allows a glimpse into the watch’s impressive mechanics.
Priced at $12,500, this edition is a more luxurious iteration thanks to its red gold accents, making it a standout addition for collectors. With only 300 available, it’s a piece of Breitling history not to be missed.
