- Is the Chronomat B01 42 a good everyday watch?
- Yes. It has a date, 200 m water resistance and a robust case, so it handles daily wear well. The main trade-off is its thickness and weight under a shirt cuff.
- How does it compare with the all-steel Chronomat B01 42?
- Same movement, case size and water resistance. The two-tone version adds a red gold bezel and accents, which looks dressier but is less understated and shows wear more.
- Does it have an in-house movement?
- Yes. It uses the Breitling 01 automatic chronograph, COSC-certified, with a column wheel and vertical clutch.
- What is the water resistance?
- 200 meters (660 feet), with a screw-locked crown. That is enough for swimming, though not for diving.
- What comes in the box?
- The watch comes with its box and papers.
- Is 42 mm too big?
- It depends on wrist size. The case is thick as well as wide, so it wears larger than the number suggests; try it on if you have a wrist under about 6.5 inches.
