Superocean Heritage B20 Automatic 42mm UK Edition Mens Watch Grey Stainless Steel

Meet the new Breitling Superocean Heritage B20 automatic 42mm, exclusively available in the UK. This timepiece offers a contemporary twist on the classic Superocean heritage, showcasing a sleek, tonal aesthetic and a hard-wearing edge that elevated its status as a sports diver’s essential. Breitling’s 1950s-era Super Ocean dive watch was designed in response to the rise of professional and leisure scuba diving. In 1957, Breitling took the plunge into the undersea world with two pioneering dive watches called the Super Ocean the world’s first dive chronograph. Today’s Superocean Heritage combines vintage-inspired design cues with modern craftmanship, it features signature details like the iconic triangular-shaped hands and a unidirectional polished black ceramic bezel. Its tonal lacquered anthracite dial in subtle contrast to the black ceramic bezel creates an alluring play of light, adding depth and refinement to the design. The Superocean Heritage B20 Automatic 42 features a robust stainless-steel case paired with an ultra-hard, scratch-and shock resistant black ceramic bezel. Its unidirectional rotating bezel includes a luminescent dot at 12 o’clock, a nod to the watch’s origins as a dive watch and a functional tool for underwater timing. The anthracite dial is complemented by two strap options: a classic stainless steel mesh strap and a rubber strap that mimics the texture of the steel for a sportier look, both feature a folding clasp buckle. On the caseback, ‘One of 500’ is engraved, highlighting its exclusivity. The watch is water-resistant to 200 meters and powered by the Breitling B20 Manufacture Caliber, a COSC-certified chronometer known for its precision and performance. Whether diving into depths, or simply navigating the rhythms of daily life, the Superocean Heritage B20 Automatic 42 combines timeless elegance with its cutting-edge functionality, embodying Breitling’s legacy of adventure and innovation.
