Introduced: The modern version launched in 2021, but the Duograph name dates back to 1940s–50s vintage Breitling chronographs featuring rattrapante (split-seconds) functionality.

Purpose / Inspiration: The 2021 Duograph was introduced as part of the Premier Heritage collection, showcasing Breitling’s commitment to haute horology with a rattrapante chronograph complication—designed for those who appreciate mechanical mastery and refined styling.

Designer: Reimagined under Georges Kern’s leadership as part of Breitling’s modern heritage revival. Combines vintage design language with modern movement innovation.

Materials & Features:

• Case size: 42mm
• Offered in stainless steel and 18k red gold
• Powered by the Breitling B15 (manual-wind, in-house, COSC-certified) rattrapante movement
• Twin pushers, split-seconds pusher integrated into the crown, and classic bi-compax dial layout
• Sapphire crystal, 30m water resistance, domed dial and vintage Arabic numerals

Discontinuation Status: Still in limited production under the Premier Heritage banner. Rare and positioned as a high-end connoisseur’s piece within Breitling’s catalog.

Split-Second Brilliance: Two seconds hands. One perfectly timed purpose.

Old World Soul, New World Engine: Vintage charm, modern muscle.

The Watchmaker’s Breitling: For those who understand what rattrapante really means.

Heritage That Works: It’s not a tribute—it’s a modern tool dressed like a classic.
