History
The first Chronomat had a circular slide rule and its design followed the tension of the era for military watches. The movement of the first Chronomat was the Venus 175 with 17 jewels, a manual wind movement. There were two variations of the first Chronomat, one in steel and the other in an 18 karat rose gold case.

The current Chronomat styling was introduced in 1984 in collaboration with the Italian Jet Team Frecce Tricolori. The most recent Chronomat was released in 2009 and was the first watch produced entirely by Breitling, featuring the in-house B01 caliber. The previous model had a Valjoux "7750" movement. The B01 movement has a 70-hour power reserve and COSC certification.
