Breitling has joined forces with leading men’s style website Mr Porter to release a new watch. A limited run of 1000 pieces, the Navitimer Aviator 8 B01 Chronograph 43 Limited Edition is a new iteration of the highly acclaimed pilot watch released earlier this year.
The timepiece is powered by the in-house Caliber B01–a COSC-certified chronometer which is widely considered as one of the world’s finest mechanical movements. The 43mm stainless steel case has a convex AR-coated sapphire crystal, a sapphire display back, and bidirectional pointer bezel. An elegant silver dial with anthracite contrasting chronograph highlights the understated style, while SuperLuminova hands and numerals make for easy legibility in the dark. Water-resistance is rated at 100 meters.
Arriving on a brown leather strap, the limited edition watch will be available exclusively from Mr Porter starting June 4, 2018, for one month, before going on release to other retailers.
