The Combination of a Chronograph and Perpetual Calendar
The Breitling Navitimer B19 combines two of watchmaking’s major complications: a chronograph and a perpetual calendar. With a 43 mm case diameter, it offers a balanced presence while preserving the classic Navitimer aesthetic.
Premium Materials: Steel and Platinum
The case is crafted from stainless steel, measuring 15 mm thick with a 49 mm lug-to-lug. Another highlight is the platinum bezel, which lends an exclusive, elegant touch. This material pairing creates a more premium appeal compared with previous Navitimer models.
Ice-Blue Dial with Refined Details
The ice-blue dial features a sunburst finish that radiates a sophisticated glow. The sub-dials have circular graining with matte edges, while the black slide rule provides strong contrast. Deep-blue accents on the moon-phase indicator and bright-blue highlights add engaging visual depth.
Comfortable Strap and Bracelet Options
The Navitimer B19 is available on a seven-row stainless-steel bracelet with a butterfly clasp or on a black alligator-leather strap with white stitching. Both options taper from 22 mm to 18 mm, offering comfort alongside the Navitimer’s signature classic look.
Engine Performance: Caliber B19
Precision Mechanics with Long Power Reserve
The Caliber B19 is an automatic movement equipped with a perpetual calendar complication. It measures 30 mm in diameter, 8.5 mm thick, and beats at 28,800 vph. Breitling endows the B19 with an impressive 96-hour power reserve—an especially valuable feature for a perpetual calendar.
COSC-Certified Accuracy
Like all Breitling watches, the B19 caliber has been tested and certified by the Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres (COSC), ensuring high accuracy in a range of conditions.
The Breitling Navitimer B19 Chronograph 43 Perpetual Calendar delivers not only classic design but also advanced technology. With the combination of a chronograph and perpetual calendar, premium materials, and a highly reliable movement, it is the perfect choice for watch enthusiasts seeking both functionality and elegance.
