Superoceon-An All New Maritime Watch

Breitling created history in 1957 with the launch of its Superocean maritime watch, made especially for professional and military divers.  The latest version of Superocean has been launched, the watch is believed to be worthy of its five-decade old history.

This version is known to be more youthful, modern and extremely dynamic since there is no compromises on the technical qualities while the makeover is stunning to the naked eye as well. The bezel is rubber molded, enlivened by sloping numerals and a fluted pattern. The strikingly distinctive dial tells a tale of the vigorous geometrical motifs with applied hour-markers and numerals standing out clearly against a matt black base. The edition is water resistant to 1,500 meters (5,000 ft) to the ultra sturdy construction of its case, a screw-locked crown and an extremely sophisticated gasket system.

The watch is powered by a self-winding chronometer-certified movement and is available in a broad spectrum of colors — blue, yellow, red, silver and black — to adorn the beveled inner bezel ring surrounding the Abyss black dial.

The case is fitted with tangential reinforcements to protect the crown from the hazards involved in underwater adventures. It is also equipped with a safety valve at 10 o‘clock, which serves to balance out the differences in the internal and external pressure of the watch. As soon as internal overpressure reaches about 3 bars, this valve automatically releases the helium stored up after time spent at great depths, thus preventing the case from exploding.


The latest Breitling Superocean collection is available at all Ethos SUMMIT a store across India, prices accurately ranges between Rs. 140,924 to 161,559.
