Breitling Superocean Heritage

Following it’s domination of aviation, in 1957 Breitling decided to enter the diving market with the Superocean . Designed for the professional diver, armed forces and elite troops, this watch soon gained a strong following in the leisure diving community, thanks to it’s armoured glass giving it a then ground breaking 200 metres depth water resistance. Since then it has been upgraded, with various models offering 500, 100, 1500 and even 2000 metres water resistant capabilities.

The current superocean range is characterized as having a relatively simple face; either just one dial , or date or both.
