1:1 online Breitling replica watches‘ latest collaboration is a pair of limited-edition Chronomats conceived together with Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Greek-Nigerian basketballer who plays for the NBA’s Milwaukee Bucks.
The entry-level model is the 2024 top fake Breitling Chronomat Automatic GMT 40 Giannis Antetokounmpo watches in stainless steel, an edition of 1,750 pieces. And then there’s the Chronomat B01 42 Giannis Antetokounmpo in 18k red gold that’s limited to 250. Both share the same dial with baton indices, finished in a green reminiscent of the Milwaukee Bucks’ team colours.
And NBA superstar himself gets a unique creation: an all-red gold best replica Breitling Chronomat B01 42 watches with the same green dial but with the registers and flange in contrasting white, along with Eastern-Arabic numerals (pictured above).
Initial thoughts
The Giannis Antetokounmpo editions are essentially identical to the respective standard perfect wholesale Breitling Chronomat copy watches, save for the dial colour that’s a brighter shade of green, along with the basketballer’s discreet “GA” as the second hands counterweight. The chronograph has the addition of a basketball emblem on the seconds register.
The basketball elements in the design are minimal, so the two are a good cosmetic alternative to the standard models, even for someone who doesn’t follow basketball since the sport. That’s especially so since the Giannis Antetokounmpo editions are priced the same as the standard models: the GMT costs US$6,150, while the B01 chronograph is US$42,500 on the red gold Rouleaux bracelet and US$23,000 on the rubber strap.
The Swiss movements Breitling Chronomat replica watches, in general, is a decent value proposition in stainless steel, but not in gold – and the same applies to these two editions. The GMT has a useful complication in a wearable 40 mm case and the signature Rouleaux bracelet just over US$6,000. The movement is an ETA, but that’s acceptable at this price point.
Granted, the red gold B01 chronograph is a good-looking watch, but it is expensive compared to the competition. It would have been better value in steel.
Classic Chronomat

Under the solid back is the COSC-certified Calibre 32, which is an ETA 2893 beating at 28,800 beats per hour (4 Hz), with as a power reserve of 42 hours. It indicates two time zones legibly, but is not a “true” GMT as only the 24-hour hand is independently adjustable, instead of the local time hand.
