Breitling Premier B19 Datora Chronograph 42 140th Anniversary Limited Edition: When the Premier debuted in 1943, it brought the chronograph from the cockpit into social life. This gentlemanly chronograph was not only a sign of taste, but also an extremely practical tool watch. Made in 18K red gold, the anniversary limited edition retains the Premier’s distinctive Arabic numerals, contrasting minute track, and iconic rectangular pushers. The strap is black alligator leather with elegant tone-on-tone stitching and an 18K red gold folding clasp.
Breitling Navitimer B19 Perpetual Calendar Chronograph 43 140th Anniversary Limited Edition: The Navitimer was the first pilot’s watch to combine a chronograph with the brand’s proprietary wrist-mounted circular slide rule. Originally developed in 1952 for members of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), the watch soon won over a wider audience, including celebrities and astronauts. In 1962, it became the first Swiss watch to fly into space. The anniversary limited edition features an eye-catching 18K red gold dial with a classic black circular slide rule. The alligator leather strap features reverse stitching and an 18K red gold folding clasp. The Breitling Navitimer replica watches at captainthewatch.is.
Breitling Chronomat B19 Perpetual Calendar Chronograph 44 140th Anniversary Limited Edition: The Chronomat watch was first launched in 1983 as the official watch of the Italian "Frecce Tricolori" aerobatic team. Its design was so popular that it was released on a larger scale a year later. The quartz crisis was a key node, and the Chronomat watch became the mainstay of the rekindled craze for mechanical chronographs. The anniversary limited edition continues the series' unique design: four raised bezel indicators (saddle stitch) at the quarter-hour positions, the "onion head" crown and the classic roller-bead style rubber strap. The ceramic bezel makes the watch extraordinary. In addition, the eye-catching hollow dial is another new breakthrough for Breitling.

Blue Dial Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 15720ST Watch
The thickness of the stainless steel case of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 15720ST watch reaches 14.4 mm. Compared with the 42 mm size and 14.2 mm thickness of the Royal Oak Offshore Diver 15720, the new 15605 is slightly better in size. However, Audemars Piguet's design considerations are not to pursue a smaller or thinner appearance. The new 15605 watch cancels the complex configuration of the diving watch and chronograph, such as removing the redundant rotating crown and chronograph button, which makes the watch more concise in appearance design and presents a smoother integrated shape of the watch head and strap.

Although the new Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 15605 watch has a water resistance rating of 100 meters, it still retains practical configurations such as the crown shoulder and screw-in lock. These designs not only ensure the waterproof performance of the watch, but also add a classic charm. Overall, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 15605 watch uses a large area of satin brushed design and polished edge edges, successfully combining sports characteristics with luxurious sensory exquisiteness, showing the brand's deep understanding and exquisite craftsmanship of advanced watchmaking.
A highlight of the new Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 15605 is the design of the blue octagonal bezel. Audemars Piguet uses an innovative treatment method of wrapping metal with rubber. This design not only adds a touch of modernity to the watch, but also brings a unique tactile experience. As for the use of rubber material, in fact, if you are familiar with the offshore type, you will find that Audemars Piguet has applied rubber material to its iconic octagonal bezel as early as 2002, launching the offshore type 25940SK, which is a first in the watchmaking industry. At the same time, Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak Offshore series has never stopped exploring materials. The bezel has already been used in many materials, such as traditional steel bezels, ceramic bezels, and carbon fiber bezels, and now rubber bezels. Audemars Piguet continues to break through the boundaries of traditional watchmaking and cleverly combine functionality with design aesthetics.
On the dial, the rotating inner bezel required for diving watches is abandoned, and with a larger size, the new offshore 15605 has a significantly fuller dial ratio, which allows designers to focus more on its luxury and exquisite aesthetics. 15605 uses Audemars Piguet's iconic Mega Tapisserie oversized checkered pattern, and has delicate vertical brushed decorations. At the same time, the large checkered patterns are connected by embossed X shapes. The dial color, this smoky blue tone, will gradually deepen at the edge of the dial with a gradient effect.
The platinum hands and platinum inlaid hour markers have chosen a more slender and exquisite shape. Including the calendar window, there is no longer a magnifying glass, which is directly placed at 3 o'clock to fit the outer scale ring. In terms of movement, the new offshore model 15605 uses the new generation of Audemars Piguet 4302 automatic movement. Let's look at the polishing and decoration first. Even though Audemars Piguet's watch factory is located in Le Brassus, Jura Mountains, unlike the Geneva Seal, the polishing and finishing of its movement will still follow the highest standards in the industry.
