The next chapter in Breitling’s signature modern-retro style

In the early 1940s, Willy Breitling was already dreaming of a time after the war, when utility would give way to unbridled optimism. He began designing a chronograph that would be functional but also undeniably elegant and infinitely wearable—in his words, “the unmistakable stamp of impeccable taste.” He called this new line the Premier. To create its modern Premier, Breitling preserved distinctive vintage-Premier details, including the smooth fixed bezel, twin-register dial, streamlined rectangular pushers and applied Arabic numerals, punctuating a series of classic dial colors. It comes on a choice of classic alligator leather strap or sleek 7-row metal bracelet. Today’s Premier also lives up to Willy Breitling’s uncompromising technical standards with its exceptional self-winding movement — the COSC-certified Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01 — designed for maximum precision, reliability and functionality.

About Breitling

From its earliest patents around the chronograph, to the later smuggling watches out of Switzerland in support of allied efforts at the outset of WWII, the Breitling story is one ripe with innovation, intrigue, and even audacity, ever since its founding by Léon Breitling in 1884. The modern Breitling continues those traditions, while faithfully tipping its hat to the brand's earliest days, marrying in-house movement manufacture with more modest proportions that maintain Breitling's hallmark case design and dial finishing. This is the Breitling that watch fans have spent the last two decades waiting for, and this is the Breitling we are so proud to welcome to Topper Jewelers.
