Reminder that Breitling is still fighting the good fight by staying outside of the (((Swatch Group))).

They make their own movements and even have a fully dedicated wing to certify their movements for COSC specifications.

Their current in-house Chrono movement, B01/B09, is designed/inspired after Rolex’s 3135 and 4130 movements.

The escape wheel has a neat shockproof oil retaining system. It has a column wheel with a vertical clutch.

It’s such a good movement that Tudor uses it in their watches and builds upon it.

It’s probably the best new chronopgraph movement under $10k.

If you want another chrono that uses a column wheel with a vertical clutch from someone like Omega you would have to pay around $13k.
