Chronomat 44 Blacksteel
Chronomat 44 Blacksteel
Blacksteel is a sleek, intensely black DLC treatment that gives a “stealth” finish with an attractive gunmetal glint. Most Breitling watch families now feature a Blacksteel version.The Chronomat 4 Blacksteel belongs to one of the brand’s most iconic collections, descended from the 1941 Breitling Chronomat. Today’s Chronomats have a more user-friendly bezel design, with four rider tabs and inlaid black rubber numerals marking the five-minute intervals – a nice military touch, and a tactile treat for the fingers.

General Features
This is a very well-built, no-nonsense watch. It has a distinctive Breitling look about it, resembling a pilot’s tool with its clean, technical face and three subdials. A matte finish makes it quite unobtrusive, despite being reassuringly heavy on the wrist.
There are many versions of the Chronomat to choose from – steel or gold for the case and bezel, and a choice of rubber, metal, calfskin, alligator, or NATO strap – so you can get the look you want.
The Chronomat is most commonly worn on a heavy-duty metal bracelet, which comes with a superb deployment clasp. This easy-to-use flip-lock system with two buttons ensures a snug and secure fit.
