Serial numbers
- ? – ? (2021–?) — Breitling serial numbers of modern references (post-2009) engraved on the case back. Specific serial ranges for RB0145 not publicly documented. Serial numbers typically start with a letter prefix followed by 6 digits.
Willy Breitling launched the first Premier in 1943, answering demand for slim, elegant chronographs outside the brand's pilot-watch line. For more than 50 years, the collection all but vanished from the catalog. Georges Kern brought it back in 2019 as the Gen-1 reference AB0118/RB0118, with baton indices and a classic bi-compax layout. The RB0145371G1P1 belongs to the second generation of that revival, built around caliber B01 in a 42-millimeter rose gold case.
## The 2021 Switch: Baton Gives Way to Arabic Numerals
AB0118 was discontinued in 2021, with AB0145/RB0145 taking over. Breitling pulled the reference closer to its 1940s and '50s vintage roots — Arabic numerals replaced the baton indices, and the color palette expanded to blue, black, silver, and cream for the rose gold version. That cream dial, coded RB0145-371G1-Cream, is the basis for the RB0145371G1P1, paired with the smooth, fixed rose gold bezel RB0145-Fixed-Smooth-RoseGold. Collectors know the model by names like "Premier B01 42 Rose Gold Cream" or "Premier RG Cream Dial."
## MY23 and the 80th Anniversary
In 2023, Breitling added six new Premier B01 42 variants to mark the 80th anniversary of the original 1943 Premier. New additions included green and copper dials for the steel models, along with matching metal bracelets in steel (A1) and red gold (R1). For the cream-dial rose gold line, this refresh brought the RB0145371G1R1 as a metal-bracelet counterpart to the leather-based RB0145371G1P1 — the P1 reference itself remained unchanged in the catalog.
Brand profile: Breitling
Breitling is known for aviation and dive watches. Chronographs (Navitimer, Chronomat) are the most frequently counterfeited. Pay close attention to slide rule details and COSC certification.
- Wing logo: a genuine Breitling logo shows the anchor and wing tips that NEVER touch — precise negative space between them — fakes let the tips meet or overlap
- 3D 'B' crown: the 'B' on the crown must appear three-dimensional with a light reflection on the curve — a flat 'B' = fake
- Bezel scale vs. dial: the outer white bezel scale must align precisely with the inner black dial indices — fakes show misalignment
- Date disc depth: a genuine Navitimer date disc sits flush with the dial plane — fakes show the date window as a 'crater' (noticeably sunken or raised)
Serial number format: Breitling serial numbers: alphanumeric, located between the lugs at 6 o'clock. Format: one letter + 8 digits (e.g. 'AB012012'). Older models: digits only.
