Superocean Automatic 46

Bronze - Brown

Performance and style for all your aquatic activities. In the 1960s, the new sport of scuba diving was all the rage. For divers, timekeeping was everything. So Breitling set out to give them the cleanest, most accurate dive watch possible by eliminating all the functions that didn’t meet their vital underwater needs. This scaled-down watch was called the Slow Motion. All that remained were the clean lines, thick indexes with luminescent coating, square hands, and a contrasting dial ring to optimize readability. Practical, yes. But what everyone loved most was the style. The new Superocean retraces the famous aesthetic codes of the Slow Motion by adding modern features, such as an inlaid ceramic bezel and brightly colored dials. Large hands and indexes with Super-LumiNova® luminescent coating facilitate readability underwater. The watch is water-resistant to 300 m (1000 ft) and is also shock, sand and salt water resistant. The bronze version is equipped with a special alloy that is highly resistant to corrosion. However, a slight patina will appear over time and will make the watch even more unique. Both strap options (rubber and metal) have a folding clasp that allows for micro-adjustments to within 15 mm for easier wear with thermal tops and wetsuits. Its scratch-resistant ceramic inlaid bezel is resistant to wear and discoloration. For safety, the bezel is unidirectional on most sizes, but bidirectional and equipped with a patented lock on the 46 mm model. Best of all, it is no longer just a dive watch: with it, you can surf, swim, go to the beach bar and then wear it to dinner. The Superocean is the perfect balance between the nostalgia of its heritage and the freshness of its new look.

Waterproof up to 300 m.
