Breitling Replica Superocean New Version [Availability, Price]
The Breitling replica collection of sports diving watches has undergone a major facelift based on the historic “Slow Motion” reference. Superoceana will be available in one of four sizes.
In the press release about the new Superocean Breitling Replica collection, he informs that it is not only a diving watch anymore. “Surf in it, swim in it, go to the bar in it …” encourages the brand – and there is something to it. The new Superocean is colorful, holiday, casual, and what’s more, it is available in a large number of variants.
The design was inspired by the Superocean “Slow Motion” model from the 1960s and 1970s. That watch, prepared especially for professional diving, lacked a second hand, in place of which – centrally on the dial – a stopwatch minute hand was mounted, which made one revolution around the dial in an hour. Superocean 2022 does not have this option, but has a number of aesthetic references to the model liked by collectors.
In the new collection, Breitling Replica offers Superoceana in four sizes: 46 mm, 44 mm, 42 mm and 36 mm. The material options are steel, steel and gold (bi-color) and bronze. The 46 mm model is equipped with a bezel that rotates in both directions and a special lock to block its accidental rotation. The other versions have a one-way bezel (standard on divers watches) with a ceramic inlay. The 44 mm and 42 mm variants are made of bronze, which guarantees an even patina. All references in the collection are equipped with either a steel Oyster bracelet with slightly slanted links or a rubber strap with a butterfly clasp. The clasp has a built-in micro-adjustment that allows you to increase the circumference of the strap by a large 15 mm.
Most references to the historical reference can be found on the dials. The eye is quickly drawn to the “characteristic”, wide, white minute ring with a distinct graduation. From the outside, it surrounds the central part of the dial with large luminous indices and oversized hands. The minute hand ends with an unusually square element. There is no date stamp for it, and at 12 you can see the manufactory logo applied – a stylish letter “B”. The largest 46mm model has a black or navy blue dial. In the 44 mm version, the dial can be black, navy blue, turquoise, green or brown. The 42mm Superocean has a black, blue, silver or green dial, and in the smallest 36mm option, the dial is turquoise, silver or orange. In addition, there is a color combination of the straps, which together gives a wide range of options – something for every taste.
