Breitling Superocean Heritage 38

Breitling Superocean Heritage 38 is created to pay homage to that first Superocean model. It is the smaller version of the two watches created in the Heritage series, the other being the Superocean Heritage 46. The names depict the two sizes in this series.

When Breitling first unveiled the Superocean in 1957, it created immense excitement amongst divers then for its technological feat of water-resistance up to 200m at that time.

Breitling Superocean Heritage 38 is powered by the atuomatic Breitling Caliber 37 (base ETA 2824), containing 27 jewels with 28,800 vph. It is a COSC officially certified chronometer, making the watch one of the most reliable and precise around.

The stainless steel case is 38mm in diameter with a height of 12.1mm. The case features a 120-tooth unidirectionally rotating steel-and-aluminium bezel with reference markers. The face is made of scratch-resistant glareproofed sapphire crystal, which is cambered so that readability remains uncompromised even at angles.

The crown is screwed in with two gaskets. Water-resistance is up to an impressive 200m. The main functions are hours, minutes, subsidiary seconds; and date at 3.

The dial and bezel is an unique brick color, contrasted with silvered luminescent hands. The distinctive shape of the minute hand is also inspired by the 1957 Superocean model. The dial also features the 1950s Breitling logo topped by a B in 18k gold. This sophisticated and eye-catching attractiveness of the watch is completed with the Milanaise steel bracelet with folding clasp, or the rubber Ocean Racer strap.
