While it's often overlooked or under discussed when people talk about the most beautiful vintage chronographs, the Breitling Chronomat 808 Black Dial Men's watch replica warrants consideration. It would be easy to cast this watch aside as a less-equipped version of the far more popular Navitimer, but as we'll see, that's a patently unfair categorization. In terms of both intent and history, the Chronomat is truly a significant watch.
But taking a look at the watch from the side and seeing how the bezel overhangs the case and angles outward, it actually measures in at over 37mm in diameter. That angling attribute, by the way, is extremely similar to the ultra rare "wide bezel" Cosmonautes that were later introduced when Scott Carpenter requested such piecesfrom the brand for space exploration purposes. The bezel, which is beautifully beaded, is easy to turn but contains a bit more tension than in the Navis and Cossies I own.
Dial-wise, there's only love from my side when it comes to the Breitling Chronomat 808 replica. The layout and spacing are simply perfect. The silver color takes on an eggshell sheen - it's gorgeous and the quality is as good or better than anything from the era in my opinion. The same can be said about the choice of orangey red for the central chrono hand, rightmost sub register hand and font. It's such a unique color choice versus the typical black or chrome and it works wonders with any type of brown leather strap. Those nickel plated main hands make a fairly bold statement and work well with the dial - taking up a bit more space than the hands found in earlier Chronomats.

Major Change
The Breitling Chronomat 808 black dial vintage chronograph replica introduced a major change versus its 769 predecessor along with more subtle updates. Gone were the rectangular pushers in favor of round pump pushers. Big dagger hands replaced earlier needles. Additonally, a larger signed crown joined the fray to help the Chronomat fit in with other Breitlings of the era. Dial-wise, applied baton hour markers replaced former versions often found with Arabic numerals. The Venus 175 remained in place ad the Brevet (patent number) moved from the dial to the snap-back case back.Attractive Chronograph
When taking a detailed look into the cosmetics of this Breitling Chronomat 808 replica, it becomes clear that this is one amazingly attractive chronograph. With its slender, chamfered lugs, a Breitling calling card, 36mm case size and 18mm lugs, the Chronomat straddles the fine line between tool and elegant watch.Perfect Dial

Venus 175
The movement is the Venus 175, 17-jewels with a centre chronograph hand recording seconds, a minute chronograph register at 3 o'clock recording up to 45 minutes, and a running seconds hand on the sub-dial at 9 o'clock. There is no Incablock shock protection and initially the movement is not signed either 'BREITLING' or with the three-letter Breitling movement code, 'WOG'.Learn more about Breitling Chronomat chronograph replica, visit our replica watches store, we are selling almost all model AAA grade 1 :1 cloned fake Breitling watches.
