The history of this Breitling Chronomat
A watchmaking icon since 1984, the Breitling Chronomat has spanned the decades by constantly reinventing itself. Originally designed for the aviation elite, it has become the symbol of versatile, casual luxury. With this Automatic 36 version, Breitling offers a refined, feminine interpretation of its legendary chronograph. Reference A10380 retains the collection's robust DNA while adopting a contained 36 mm diameter, perfectly suited to modern wrists. This model embodies sporty elegance, capable of accompanying you on an active day as well as to a dressy cocktail party. It represents the perfect balance between the brand's technical heritage and an assertive jewel aesthetic.
Case, caliber and bracelet of this Chronomat 36
The 36 mm stainless steel case captivates with its alternating finishes, mixing brushed and polished surfaces. It is topped by the famous rider bezel, the Breitling Chronomat's signature feature, which protects the domed sapphire crystal. The real charm of this timepiece lies in its silvery-white dial, illuminated by diamond-set hour-markers that catch the light with subtlety. The golden hands add a touch of warmth and legibility.
At the heart of this 100-meter water-resistant case beats Breitling Calibre 10, a mechanical self-winding movement renowned for its reliability. Certified Chronometer by the COSC, it ensures remarkable precision and delivers a power reserve of around 42 hours. The watch is adorned with the indispensable Rouleaux steel bracelet. This bracelet, both supple and robust, offers unrivalled wearing comfort and gives the watch its characteristic retro-chic look.
Why this Breitling watch
Choosing this pre-owned Breitling Chronomat is a wise decision for those looking for an everyday luxury watch without the price of new. The white dial and diamond index configuration is undoubtedly the most timeless in the collection: it never goes out of fashion and goes with every outfit. Unlike a fully set version, it remains discreet and tasteful. Offered without its original papers, it benefits from a very attractive price positioning, making access to this mythical model much smoother. This is the ultimate everyday watch: robust, waterproof, precise and infinitely elegant.
