Hi, I'm about to buy my first Breathing and the model I'm going for a Chronomat model.

I wanted to know what the difference between the B01 and the Chronomat 44 is. The specific model I'm after is the black dial and white sub one.

I read that the B01 was discontinued in 2010. But to me, the Chronomat 44 looks identical.
Is there actually any differences between the two? in terms of movement or case size/thickness?

Welcome to BreitlingSource.

They are the same watch, it's just the name that changed.

When the B01 Chronomat was introduced the Chronomat Evo was still in production. That B01 was just a way to separate the two Chronomat's. Once the Evo was discontinued the current designation was set in place. Hope this helps.
