Reference EB0134101M1S1 is the titanium Chronomat B01 42 with an anthracite grey dial, and this Breitling Chronomat anthracite clone reproduces it in stainless steel, pairing that cool-toned dial with a black rubber strap and a blue central chronograph hand for a subtle accent. The grey dial sits between the silver and black options in the Chronomat range, offering a muted, modern look that reads differently depending on the light.

A Tonal Grey Dial With One Blue Hand

The anthracite dial is the quiet standout here. Rather than the high contrast of a panda layout, the grey base with dark subdials creates a monochrome, tonal effect, broken only by the blue central chronograph seconds hand. On the black rubber strap, the whole package leans sportier than the bracelet versions.

Clone Cal. B01 and the One-Way Bezel

Its clone Cal. B01 automatic chronograph ticks at 28,800 vibrations per hour, running the three-register chronograph with a date window at 6 o’clock. Turn the bezel and it moves in one direction only, with a ratchet you can feel through the rider tabs. For the silver-dial version of the same 42mm case, also on black rubber, see the silver Chronomat 42mm AB0134101G1S1, or browse the full Chronomat collection.

Breitling Chronomat Anthracite Clone Versus the Panda Dials

The grey-dial Chronomat on rubber is an understated, sport-oriented configuration in the 42mm range. The tonal dial avoids the boldness of panda layouts while the blue hand and rubber strap keep it contemporary. This anthracite Chronomat in steel suits anyone who wants the Chronomat case in a quieter, more casual execution.
