The 1940s Chronomat is regarded by many collectors as one of the most attractive Breitlings ever made, a true classic.
There is a red 0 - 100 scale near the middle of the dial which can be used for reading 1/100ths of a minute and facilitates computations using the slide rule. The Swiss cross and the number 217012 on the dial refer to the Swiss government patent that was granted in 1940
