Breitling celebrates its links to the world of motorcycling and surfing with a new Limited Edition of its Premier B01 chronograph.
Presented in two versions, in stainless steel and in red gold, the new Premier B01 Chronograph 42 Wheels and Waves Limited Edition takes its name from the world’s leading motorcycle, surfing, and skateboarding festival that each year, since June 2012, attracts visitors from all over the world to the town of Biarritz, France.
The stainless steel version will be limited to 500 pieces while only 100 watches in red gold will be produced.
The 42 mm x 13.65 mm cases in both metals feature an engraved plate with a Breitling SPECIAL inscription on the left side.
The new Wheels and Waves editions are characterized by an anthracite dial with golden hour markers, hour and minute hands, and a red central seconds hand. The dial also features a black tachymeter scale on a white inner bezel, with a red tachymeter inscription.
The two contrasting black subdials (a chronograph minute counter at 3 o’clock and a small seconds subdial at 9 o’clock) are typical of Breitling's models powered by the flagship Manufacture Caliber 01, a self-winding movement certified by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC).
Visible through a transparent caseback, this movement beats at a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vph) and offers a power reserve of about 70 hours.

I really do think that people will love this watch. Perfect size for a chronograph as 42 mm. A beautiful, even dial, without the ugly hole for a date display. A true no nonsense cronograph!
