What order is the Riddick trilogy?

Excuse me, could you please clarify the order in which the Riddick trilogy is meant to be watched? I've heard that the sequels were released out of chronological order and I'm curious about the correct viewing sequence to fully appreciate the storyline. Is it Pitch Black, followed by Chronicles of Riddick, and then Riddick? Or is there a different arrangement that fans tend to prefer? Thank you for your assistance.
