Breitling Superocean Automatic 42

Breitling Superocean Automatic 42 - between nostalgia and novelty

Inspired by the Superocean Slow Motion, which delighted divers in the 1960s, the Superocean Automatic 42 walks a fine line between dreamy nostalgia and daring innovation. It combines design elements from the great role model with completely modern elements in a watch that is clearly recognizable as a diving watch without being completely dedicated to a specific purpose. Because: A Superocean Automatic from Breitling is almost too beautiful to be used "only" underwater. With its high quality and youthful look, it brings a breath of fresh air to any outfit and can easily be worn not only for sport, but also in everyday life and at the office.

Technical aspects of the Superocean Automatic 42

Equipped with the Breitling 17 manufacture caliber, which has a 38-hour power reserve and is self-winding, the Superocean Automatic 42 is always ready to deliver top performance. It is waterproof up to 300 meters, shockproof and well protected against salt water and sand - a maximally robust all-rounder.

Particularly practical: The rubber strap on which this sports watch is worn can be precisely adjusted to the wrist using a folding clasp, thus always offering maximum comfort and a secure fit. The Super-LumiNova coating on the indices and hands ensures optimal readability, so that the ideal conditions are met for adventures above and below the water surface.

From elegant to extravagant: The facets of the Superocean Automatic 42

The Super Automatic 42 collection from Breitling is extremely diverse in terms of color. The product range includes extravagant models with yellow dials or colorful indices, but also references dressed entirely in simple black and versions in which a maritime blue or muted green dominates the look.

While the majority of luxury watches are made of stainless steel, individual timepieces have a bronze case or have a ceramic inlay bezel in shiny red gold. The Superocean Automatic (Ref. R17375211B1S1), by far the most expensive and luxurious, even has an entire case made of 18-carat red gold - a real eye-catcher.

But no matter whether gold, bronze or stainless steel: thanks to the rubber strap, the luminous hands and the compact indices, the Breitling Superocean Automatic 42 retains its characteristic sportiness in every variant - sometimes with an elegant, sometimes with a fashionably cheeky and sometimes with an absolutely function-oriented top note.
