Breitling Chronomat Automatic Chronograph

This is a Breitling Chronomat automatic chronograph wristwatch, likely from the late 1990s or early 2000s based on its design language. The timepiece features a stainless steel case with a distinctive gold-toned unidirectional rotating bezel, which includes the signature four rider tabs at the 15, 30, 45, and 60-minute positions. The dial is a deep vibrant blue and features three gold-toned champagne sub-dials positioned at the 6, 9, and 12 o'clock marks, though the orientation appears somewhat unusual for standard movements in this range. A date window is visible at the 3 o'clock position. The hands and hour markers are luminous, designed for visibility. It is fitted with a blue alligator-style leather strap with white contrast stitching, which shows minor wear. The crystal appears intact, but the gold plating on the bezel and 'unidirecional' rider tabs shows significant signs of surface wear and patina, particularly around the edges. The watch includes the heritage Breitling winged 'B' logo on the dial. There are visible scratches on the metal casing consistent with regular use. The crown and pushers are present, though the alignment of the text on the dial in the photograph appears inverted relative to the watch face, which may indicate a camera mirror effect or a potential manufacturing anomaly. This model represents the bulky, masculine 'aviation' luxury style popular during its period of manufacture.
