Today, not only does the 2024 NFL season kick off, but also a collaborative best fake Breitling Chronomat NFL Collection. You may be surprised to learn that the largely pilot’s watch-associated Swiss manufacturer has long had ties to the National [American] Football League.
The extensive limited edition collaboration centres around Breitling’s Chronomat B01 42 in stainless steel, that ultimately only deviates from standard models with special team-inspired dials and an NFL logo-etched exhibition caseback. I have seen other brands produce NFL-themed limited edition watches, typically associated with a single brand ambassador and their team. For the UK high quality replica Breitling Chronomat NFL Collection, every NFL fan has been considered, as there are 32 different models to choose from – one for each team in the NFL. Each team model is limited to 104 pieces, a nod to the NFL’s 104th anniversary this year. Therefore, online copy Breitling watches are making a total of 3,328 watches for its NFL collaboration – half of which will be affixed to a stainless steel Rouleaux bracelet with a butterfly clasp, and the other half outfitted on a black Rouleaux-inspired rubber strap.
Enough chit-chat, let’s get to what makes these watches special – their dials. Breitling appears to have done an excellent job honing in on the signature hues of each NFL team. For example, the Denver Broncos’ colours are orange, blue, and white. Swiss movement fake Breitling elected to lean into the bolder orange of the Broncos jersey, but it did not forget about the blue that can be subtly seen on the central chronograph hand and on the hands of the chronograph sub-dials. If you couldn’t figure it out by the colours, the immediate tell of which team the AAA replica watches tribute are at the 9 o’clock small seconds counter.
This is the style guide for each of the 32 dials – a team-inspired colour with white sub-dials, secondary colour-accented hands, and a team logo within the small seconds counter. The usage of white chronograph counters for all of the top copy watches not only nets a fan-favourite panda dial flavour, but also a better-embedded date complication as the disc is black-on-white.
Framing the B01 manufacture calibre exhibited within, you’ll notice the outer border includes the engraving “ONE OF 104” to commemorate the aforementioned anniversary. The NFL logo is tastefully etched on the sapphire crystal’s surface in a manner that does not obscure your view of the 70-hour automatic movement within. The vertical-clutch column-wheel chronograph calibre is also notably COSC-certified and is therefore pledged to run within +6/-4 seconds per day.
When I first reviewed the assets provided for this release, I must confess my first thought was “another collaborative Chronomat?” With this collection following both the Giannis Antetokounmpo and Victoria Beckham collaborations from earlier this year, I wondered if it would have been better to give another collection a moment under the gridiron lights. Considering the success of the limited UK 1:1 wholesale replica Breitling Chronomat Super Bowl LVII Edition, however, it makes complete sense to follow a winning formula. The Chronomat aesthetic also has the benefit of being appreciated by both watch-collecting die-hards and mainstream buyers that may not be as far down the rabbit hole.
What I appreciate about all 32 dial configurations is the fact that even if the team logo was stripped from the dial, the colour combinations all look great in their own right. The integration of the NFL theme is not overdone. The integrity and legibility of the shop replica Breitling Chronomat watches have not been compromised, remaining highly robust and legible. Also, with zero overt elements tied to a specific year, season, or championship, all of the watches are timeless in their NFL expression. The only deterrent at play design-wise is team loyalties. For example, I think the green of the Philadelphia Eagles dial has been perfectly interpreted and looks great. But as a New York Giants fan, you would never catch me alive in Eagles gear. That being said, with NFL stadiums averaging nearly 70,000 spectators, and some 18 million people watching on their screens at home, I doubt the 104 UK luxury fake watches per team will have trouble finding a wrist to call home.
