Presented in a bold blue livery and featuring the new Manufacture Breitling Caliber B04 movement, powering an ultra-convenient dual timezone system, the new limited-release Breitling Chronoliner Boutique Edition makes staying on time whilst travelling a breeze.

The new rendition, boasting the new B04 movement, makes keeping track of multiple time zones even easier; to adjust the main hours hand to local time, all the wearer need do is pull out the crown and turn it either way in one-hour increments, without losing any precision in terms of minutes and while ensuring automatic adjustment of the date in both directions. Meanwhile, the time piece’s red-tipped hand keeps track of home time in 24-hour mode, thereby making it easy to distinguish between day and night.
To accentuate the exclusive nature of this original and high-performance model, Breitling has combined the steel case with a blue bezel and dial, the latter adorned with silver counters, and a matching rubber Aero Classic strap, embossed with a pattern reminiscent of the steel mesh bracelets equipping the brand’s instruments during the 1950s and 60s.

Like all Breitling chronographs and watches, the Chronoliner B04 was designed to withstand intensive usage in even the toughest conditions, notably thanks to a rugged case water-resistant to 100m, a sapphire crystal glareproofed on both sides, and an ultra-hard, scratch-resistant ceramic bezel featuring a star-shaped cutout that facilitates handling with gloves.
Equipped with a special engraved caseback sporting a vintage-look pin-up and “Special delivery” inscription, the Chronoliner B04 is issued in a 100-piece limited edition.
