Product Information Table

Aviation Slide Rule Bezel

One of the most prominent features of this model is its bi-directional bezel featuring an aviation slide rule. This elaborate scale gives the watch its technical appearance and has an obvious connection to the aviation theme of the Navitimer range.

Traditionally, the slide rule bezel is used for flight-related calculations such as speed, distance, and fuel consumption. However, even in the context of a regular chronograph worn on a daily basis, this elaborately detailed bezel contributes to the sophisticated instrument-like look of the watch.

Dial Features

Black reverse panda dial is characterized by strong visual contrast provided by three white chronograph subdials. The dial layout features a 30-minute counter, a 12-hour counter and a running seconds counter thus forming the characteristic multi-register layout typical for a classic aviation chronograph.

Moreover, the dial has the AOPA wings symbol at 12 o'clock position thus emphasizing the aviation-inspired nature of the watch. The date window is placed at 6 o'clock position thus providing the necessary practical functionality of the watch.

Together with the outer slide rule scale, the dial has a very technical appearance with multiple layers of information and visual depth.

Seven-Row Stainless Steel Bracelet

The watch is equipped with a traditional seven-row aviation bracelet made of 316L stainless steel. Its elaborate design with multiple links ensures the bracelet looks more elaborate than a regular three-link bracelet and fits well to the shape of the wrist.

Its polished and brushed surface finish creates visual contrast on the bracelet links. In combination with the 43mm stainless steel case, the bracelet adds a strong all-steel profile to the watch.

Movement and Performance

Under the case of the Breitling Navitimer AB0138211B1A1 replica lies the Clone B01 automatic chronograph movement which is used to power the complex multi-function dial of this watch.

The chronograph function has a 1/4 second accuracy and 30 minute and 12 hours elapsed time counters. This combination makes the watch appear as a professional timing instrument while keeping the mechanical character typical for a traditional pilot chronograph.

It is equipped with a sapphire crystal and has a sapphire exhibition caseback which allows observing the movement.

Collector's Perspective

For collectors who value aviation-inspired chronographs, the AB0138211B1A1 combination offers several important features. The black reverse panda dial is known for its contrast, while the AOPA wings, circular slide rule, and three-register layout make the watch have the instantly recognizable instrument watch look.

The 43mm case size also makes this watch a balanced watch in the wider range of Navitimer models. Instead of concentrating only on the dial, the seven-row stainless steel bracelet and sapphire exhibition caseback add more details for collectors who appreciate the watch as a whole design.
