In 2009, Breitling embarked on a bold "Revival Plan," infusing the classic with a modern soul. The new CHRONOMAT B01 emerged, powered by the brand’s first fully in-house manufactured Caliber 01 movement, boasting a 70-hour power reserve and certified by the stringent Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC). Its most striking feature is the four distinctive rider tabs on the bidirectional rotating bezel – a design language paying homage to the original, yet a pinnacle of pragmatism. These tabs were initially conceived to protect the vulnerable crystal and crown during intense flight operations, ensuring unwavering resilience.



The Breitling CHRONOMAT B01: Legendary design meets modern watchmaking 

Today, the model AB0134101L1A1 wears this legacy on the wrist. Its 42mm stainless steel case features refined alternations of satin brushing and polished surfaces, radiating both strength and sophistication. The deep blue dial reveals captivating layers of color under shifting light. The signature rider tabs and robust crown guards remain faithfully vigilant over the case's critical areas. The intricate ballet of the B01 movement is proudly displayed through the sapphire crystal caseback – a testament to Breitling’s engineering prowess.



The Legend's Daily Challenge: When Precision Meets Reality

Despite its robust construction, the valuable Breitling CHRONOMAT B01 AB0134101L1A1 inevitably faces the wear and tear of daily life:

  • Bezel and Lugs: The Front Line: Unintentional brushes against desks during work or minor grazes entering/exiting vehicles leave the first micro-scratches on bezel edges and lug corners, dulling the watch's sharp presence.
  • Case Flanks: The Unexpected "Kiss": A passing scrape against a wall corner or metal doorknob can etch a noticeable ding onto the case’s smooth sides – a dissonant note in a symphony of perfection.
  • Sapphire Crystal: The Invisible Threat: Though immensely hard, encounters with extreme abrasives like quartz sand or diamond dust can still cause irreparable damage. Once marred, its pristine clarity – and value – diminishes.
  • Crown Guards: Limits of Protection: Primarily shielding against frontal impacts, the crown's sides and top remain exposed during daily time-setting, vulnerable to nicks from keys or tools, leaving small yet conspicuous blemishes.



The Invisible Shield: Micron-Precision Protection Revolution

Against these pervasive daily threats, precision engineering and material science offer an ultimate, nearly invisible solution: a custom-engineered BREITLING CHRONOMAT watch protection film.

This "invisible shield" is no ordinary plastic sticker. It's a feat of aerospace-grade polymer technology, elevating protection to a new dimension of micron-level accuracy:

  • 0.16mm Featherlight Thinness: Equivalent to two strands of human hair, it drapes flawlessly over every contour of the case, offering zero tactile interference, preserving the watch’s original fluid lines and feel.
  • ±0.01mm Precision Contouring: Utilizing laser-cut precision and 3D thermoforming, it achieves zero-gap adhesion around complex structures like the rider tabs, lug curves, and crown guards, eliminating edge lift and dust traps.
  • 92.5% Optical Clarity: High light transmission and low refractive index properties ensure the blue dial's color remains true and the metal's luster undiminished – visually "invisible" protection.
  • 2100g/cm² Secure Adhesion: A specially formulated silicone adhesive layer provides powerful yet stable bonding, ensuring the film stays firmly in place through diverse conditions, yet removes cleanly without residue or damage to original finishes.
  • Protection Beyond Specs:
    • 9H+ Surface Hardness: Effectively shields against scratches from keys, coins, and grit.
    • Oleophobic & Hydrophobic Coating: Repels fingerprints, oils, and smudges, keeping the case clean with a simple wipe.
    • Impact Shock Absorption: Dissipates energy from minor knocks, reducing the risk of case dents.
    • UV Stability: Resists yellowing and brittleness over time, maintaining clarity.

Specifically tailored for the BREITLING CHRONOMAT B01 AB0134101L1A1, this protection film masterfully addresses the challenge of covering its signature rider tabs and crown guard areas, delivering 360-degree, seamless protection. Discover this meticulously crafted solution designed exclusively for the AB0134101L1A1.
