Breitling Launches Chronomat NFL Collection – 32 Teams, 32 Models
For its biggest launch of the year, Breitling replica luxury watches has partnered with the NFL to launch the Chronomat B01 42, inspired by team colors.
There are 32 different models, one for each team, and each model is limited edition.
All Chronomat NFL collection models are made of stainless steel and feature the team crest at 9 o’clock on a dial that matches the team’s colors.
Today not only kicks off the 2024 NFL season, but also the Breitling Chronomat NFL collection. You might be surprised to learn that the Swiss manufacturer, which primarily produces pilots’ watches, has a long-standing relationship with the National [American] Football League.

"This isn’t the first time Breitling has been on the football field. Breitling watches have been seen on the wrists of football players and fans for years. Former NFL quarterback Norman Julius 'Boomer' Esiason has been a Breitling ambassador for over 30 years, proudly wearing a watch from the brand. Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence, the No. 1 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, is one of the faces of Breitling’s All-Stars campaign, which debuts in 2022," Breitling explains. “In 2024, Breitling also launched the Chronomat Super Bowl LVII Limited Edition, which was very popular among football fans. In addition, Breitling has appeared on the wrists of Detroit Lions running back Jahmmyr Gibbs, Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel, Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris, New York Jets captain and linebacker CJ Mosley, New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh, and San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan.”
The extensive limited edition collaboration is centered around Breitling’s stainless steel Chronomat B01 42, which ultimately differs from the standard model only with a special team dial and an exhibition caseback engraved with the NFL logo. I’ve seen other brands produce limited edition NFL-themed watches, usually tied to a single brand ambassador and their team. For the Breitling Chronomat NFL collection, every NFL fan was thought of, as there are 32 different models to choose from – one for each NFL team. Each team model is limited to 104 pieces, in homage to the NFL’s 104th anniversary this year. As a result, Breitling has produced a total of 3,328 high quality replica watches for its NFL partnership program – half of which will be secured on a stainless steel Rouleaux bracelet with a butterfly clasp, and the other half will come with a black Rouleaux-style rubber strap.
Without further ado, let’s get to what makes these watches so special – their dials. Breitling seems to have done a great job with the iconic hues of each NFL team. For example, the Denver Broncos’ colors are orange, blue, and white. Breitling chose to go with the bold orange of the Broncos’ jerseys, but it didn’t forget to see subtle hints of blue on the central chronograph hand and the chronograph subdial hands. If you can’t tell by the color, the small seconds counter at 9 o’clock will tell you immediately which team the watch pays homage to.
Here’s the style guide for the 32 dials – team-inspired colors with white subdials, hands in the secondary color, and team logos within the small seconds counter. All watches use white chronograph counters, which not only brings the fan-favorite panda dial style, but also allows the date complication to be embedded better because the dial is white with black text. breitling Emergency II Night Mission
Taking a look at the B01 in-house movement on display inside, you’ll notice that the outer bezel is engraved with the words “ONE OF 104” in honor of the aforementioned anniversary. The NFL logo is subtly etched into the sapphire crystal so as not to obstruct your view of the 70-hour automatic movement inside. The vertical clutch column-wheel chronograph movement is also COSC-certified, so it is guaranteed to run within +6/-4 seconds per day.
When I first looked at the assets provided for this release, I must admit my first thought was “another collaborative Chronomat?” Since this collection follows the collaborations launched earlier this year with Giannis Antetokounmpo and Victoria Beckham, I wondered if another collection under football stadium lights was in order. However, given the success of the Chronomat Super Bowl LVII Limited Edition, it makes perfect sense to follow the winning formula. The Chronomat aesthetic also has the advantage of being appreciated by both watch collectors and mainstream buyers who may not be so deeply involved. replica Jacob and Co. watches
What I appreciate about the 32 dial configurations is that the color combinations all look great on their own, even if you remove the team logos from the dials. The NFL theme is not overdone. The integrity and legibility of the Chronomat is not compromised, and it remains very solid and highly legible. Furthermore, with no obvious elements associated with a specific year, season, or championship, all of the watches express a timeless appeal in an NFL style. The only obstacle in terms of design is team loyalty. For example, I think the green of the Philadelphia Eagles dial is perfectly interpreted and looks great. But as a New York Giants fan, you’ll never see me live in Eagles gear. That being said, with an average NFL stadium packed with nearly 70,000 spectators and around 18 million watching the games on screens at home, I’m sure it won’t be hard to find the right wrist for each team’s 104 watches. replica Richard Mille RM 016 watches
