About this watch

When it comes to luxury diving watches, the Breitling Superocean 42 stands tall among its peers. With a rich history dating back to its inception in 1957, the Superocean series has continually evolved, combining cutting-edge technology with timeless aesthetics. The Superocean 42 is both striking and functional, featuring a 42 mm round case made from stainless steel, giving it a robust feel that can withstand the rigors of underwater exploration. The black dial features Arabic numerals that enhance readability, making it perfect for low-light conditions. One of the standout features is the rotating bezel with a graduated scale from 0 to 60, designed specifically for dive timing. This feature is crucial for any diver, allowing them to track their time underwater accurately. Additionally, the watch is protected by a sapphire crystal, ensuring durability and scratch resistance even in the harshest environments. At the core of the Superocean 42 is the Breitling caliber 17, an automatic movement based on the reliable ETA 2824-2, boasting a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and a power reserve of approximately 38 hours. The Superocean 42 is equipped with essential features that cater to divers and watch aficionados alike, including hours, minutes, seconds, and date functions, ensuring you're always on time and aware of the date, whether above sea level or beneath the waves. One of the most impressive aspects of the Superocean 42 is its water resistance of up to 1500 meters, making it suitable for professional diving. With a case diameter of 42.00 mm, the Superocean 42 offers a comfortable fit for a range of wrist sizes. The stick hands and bold Arabic indexes provide excellent legibility, even in murky waters. Whether you're wearing it with a wetsuit or a casual outfit, this watch seamlessly transitions between styles.
