The Breitling Superocean gents watch, with its yellow dial and 46mm size, combines both high performance and stylish design for all aquatic activities. During the scuba diving craze of the 1960s, Breitling focused on creating a dive watch that prioritized timing and essential features for lifesaving. The result was the Slow Motion, a streamlined watch with clear lines, luminescent indexes, squared-off hands, and a high-contrast dial ring for optimal legibility. While its practicality was appreciated, it was the watch's sleek appearance that truly captured people's hearts.
The new Superocean honours the iconic design elements of the Slow Motion, while incorporating contemporary elements such as a ceramic-inlaid bezel and vibrant colour dials. With broad hands and luminescent Super-LumiNova® indexes, readability is effortless even underwater. Additionally, the watch boasts a water resistance of 300 m (1000 ft) and is resilient against shocks, sand, and saltwater.
The bronze model utilizes a unique alloy that offers exceptional corrosion resistance, while also developing a subtle patina over time, adding to the watch's individuality. It features two strap options - rubber and metal bracelet - each equipped with a folding clasp that can be adjusted up to 15 mm for a comfortable fit over rashies and wetsuits. The scratch-proof ceramic bezel with uni-directional function (for most sizes) and patented lock (for the 46 mm) will maintain its quality and appearance. This versatile watch not only excels as a dive watch, but also performs well while surfing, swimming, or socializing at the beach or dinner. The Superocean effortlessly balances its timeless heritage with a modern aesthetic.
