DescriptionThe Breitling Super Chronomat B19 44 Perpetual Calendar 140th Anniversary (reference RB19301A1G1S1) is a testament to Breitling's enduring legacy and horological prowess. At its heart beats the Breitling B19, a self-winding mechanical movement entirely developed and produced in-house. This marks a significant milestone as it is Breitling's first perpetual calendar chronograph movement, showcasing the brand's commitment to innovation. The B19 operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, ensuring precise timekeeping, and boasts an impressive power reserve of approximately 96 hours, allowing the watch to continue running accurately even when not worn for several days. The chronograph function offers 1/4 second precision and a 30-minute counter, ideal for timing various activities. With 39 jewels facilitating smooth movement of its components, the B19 is a marvel of micro-engineering.

The watch's perpetual calendar complication is a testament to its technical sophistication. It automatically adjusts for the varying lengths of months, including leap years, ensuring accurate date display until the year 2100. The moon phase indicator adds a touch of celestial elegance, tracking the lunar cycle with precision. Encased in 18k red gold, the Super Chronomat B19 44 exudes luxury and refinement. Its 44mm diameter strikes a balance between boldness and wearability, while the 15.35mm thickness accommodates the intricate movement within. The unidirectional ratcheted rotating bezel allows for easy tracking of elapsed time, while the screw-locked crown with two gaskets ensures water resistance up to 10 bars (100 meters), making it suitable for swimming and snorkeling. The black rubber strap with a folding clasp in 18k red gold provides both comfort and security. The watch weighs approximately 220.29 grams, offering a substantial presence on the wrist. With its blend of technical brilliance, luxurious materials, and iconic design, the Breitling Super Chronomat B19 44 Perpetual Calendar 140th Anniversary is a timepiece that celebrates both the past and the future of watchmaking.
