Breitling Premier AB0930D31L1P1

The case measures 40mm across and 13.08mm thick. Case material: Stainless steel. Case size alone is a poor guide to how a watch wears; lug-to-lug length and how the bracelet drops off the case matter more, which is why we suggest trying one on before you commit.

Manual-winding, Breitling Manufacture Caliber B09, in-house, COSC chronometer. Power reserve is 70 hours.

It is rated to 100 meters, about 328 feet. That is enough for swimming and snorkeling, but not for scuba diving. One caution that applies to every watch on this page: a water resistance figure describes a new watch with fresh gaskets. On a piece that is years past its last service, treat the rating as unknown until it has been pressure tested.

Only the leading block is decoded from documented sources. Position 1 = case material (A = steel bezel/case); the caliber block 'B09' carries a leading B, which the documented scheme states marks an IN-HOUSE Breitling manufacture caliber (here the hand-wound Caliber B09); the following 3 = COSC-certified chronometer. Breitling does not publish this scheme. It is compiled from collector documentation and reads as a reliable guide rather than a manufacturer specification.. Reading the reference is the fastest way to confirm that a watch is what the seller says it is, before you get anywhere near the movement.
