The Iconic Breitling Navitimer B01 Gets A Stunning Purple Dial For Cortina Watch
Breitling has introduced a striking limited edition of its iconic Navitimer B01 Chronograph 43, created in collaboration with Singapore-based retailer Cortina Watch. This exclusive timepiece is limited to just 50 units, making it a rare collector’s item. Engraved with “One of 50” on the case back, the watch is available exclusively through Cortina Watch’s online store, priced at SGD 13,980.
The Navitimer B01 features a classic round stainless steel case with a polished and brushed finish, measuring 43mm in diameter and 13.95mm in thickness. The notched slide-rule bezel, signature of the Navitimer line, adds functionality, complemented by a sapphire crystal, a screw-down open case back, and a water resistance of up to 30 meters. The crown at 3 o’clock, flanked by two pushers, ensures ease of operation for the chronograph functions.
What truly sets this edition apart is its stunning purple lacquered dial, paired with white sub-dials arranged in the traditional 3-6-9 layout. The dial features a 30-minute counter, a 12-hour recorder, and a running seconds display, along with a discreet date window. The red gold applied hour markers and hands, filled with Super-LumiNova for enhanced visibility, add a touch of luxury, while the embossed AOPA logo at 12 o’clock underscores the watch’s aviation heritage.
Powering this limited edition is Breitling’s in-house automatic Caliber B01 movement, renowned for its precision and reliability. This COSC-certified chronometer movement is equipped with 47 jewels, a column wheel, and a vertical clutch, operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour and delivering an impressive 70-hour power reserve.
Completing the package, the watch comes with a robust 7-link stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp, as well as an additional brown leather strap with a steel pin buckle for versatility. The combination of technical excellence, exclusivity, and a bold purple aesthetic makes this Navitimer B01 an exceptional addition to any watch collection.
