A stylish homage to the surfer lifestyle of the 60s
The Superocean Heritage '57 Capsule Collection pays homage to the surfer lifestyle of the 1960s and thus follows in the oversized footsteps of the “original SuperOcean”, whose year of origin is reflected in the name of the collection. Precision in form and function, clear lines and striking design features define the character of these luxurious sports watches, effortlessly securing their place among the great highlights of the Breitling range.
Technical details of the Breitling Superocean Heritage '57
Reliability, impressive accuracy and high performance: this is what we have come to expect from luxury watches from Breitling. But does the Superocean Heritage '57 also meet this standard? The answer: Absolutely! Equipped with the Breitling Caliber 10, an automatic COSC-certified chronometer movement, the modern interpretation of the SuperOcean cannot be thrown out of step and meets the highest standards of accuracy and reliability.
As befits a functional diver's watch, the Superocean Heritage '57 is water-resistant to 10 bar thanks to its screw-down case back and double crown seal. This makes it the ideal choice for snorkelers, swimmers, divers, surfers and other water lovers who want a stylish companion on their wrist even in cool water.
Excellence with a strong character: the design of the Superocean Heritage '57
From the bracelet to the case to the dial, the Superocean Heritage is an eye-catcher. The dial in subtle black or muted blue is framed by a bezel of the same color and showcases three elegant hands, with the hour hand in particular catching the eye with its unusual design. The luminous material on the hands and indices guarantees optimum legibility even under adverse conditions, while the bezel is visually rather restrained.
The connection to the 1957 SuperOcean can be recognized by two features in particular: Firstly, the concave, bidirectional rotating bezel evokes memories of the classic, and secondly, the oversized indices are well known to watch enthusiasts with a penchant for vintage models. Anyone familiar with the original SuperOcean will automatically be gripped by a sense of nostalgia when looking at the Heritage '57.
The modern Superocean from Breitling is available with a stainless steel or 18-carat red gold case, combined with elegant Milanaise bracelets or a calfskin strap in black, brown or gold. The red gold models, worn on a leather strap with contrasting stitching, cut a particularly elegant figure, while the stainless steel watches have a much sportier look. This variety in the details of the design makes the Superocean Heritage '57 a watch that appeals to style-conscious watch fans with different design and material preferences.
