Introduction of New Breitling Superocean Calibre 17 Watch Replica

 

The new Breitling Superocean replica collection follows the minimalist aesthetic of the original SuperOcean Slow Motion from the 1960s and 1970s, while adding modern features and bright colors. The Breitling Superocean Automatic Calibre 17 watch replica draws its inspiration from the simplified tool watch concept of slow motion. The collection has been modified to meet the needs of modern wearers while retaining many of the design features of the original.

The Dial

The idea behind these new Superocean replica watch seems to be to add as much color as possible and to offer customers a wide range of options in terms of case sizes. The new watches are loosely based on the Superocean "slow motion", named for its lack of a second hand (divers use minute based chronographs that take an hour to move around the dial). In fact, the new Superocean replica do have a second hand, but otherwise the aesthetic of Breitling's Superocean from the 60s and 70s remains largely unchanged. These watches have a sharp contrast between the inner dial and the outer minute track, making at-a-glance legibility as simple as possible.

Water resistant to 300 m (1000 ft), the new replica Superocean's wide hands and indexes are coated with Super-LumiNova® to provide excellent readability underwater. Its scratch-resistant ceramic inlay bezel means it will never wear or fade.

 

The Case

The real story of the new Superocean replica collection is diversity. There are four case sizes, three metals and white, orange, turquoise, black, blue and green dials. 46 mm stainless steel case is the largest case and gives the impression of a watch from Breitling's history that many enthusiasts would rather forget, but which is still an important part of the brand. The Big Diver is available in simple black or blue dial models, each with a matching ceramic bezel paired with a locking mechanism to keep it secure.

Next up is the 44mm stainless steel case with a dial in black, blue, turquoise and green. These watches forgo the traditional ratcheting bezel with a locking bezel, but it still features color-matched ceramic. The green and blue models come with color-matched rubber straps, while the turquoise dials come with black straps (they can both be worn with bracelets as well). There is also a 44 mm bronze case with a brown dial and matching brown rubber strap.

For the widest range of collectors, the 42mm Superocean replica is probably the smartest choice. This size dial is available in black, blue and white. The white watch is an outlier in the collection as it does not have a minute scale that contrasts with the internal dial, but it does apply hour markers set off by a blue outline. Also available in bronze in this size, here with a green dial. 42 mm size is also a hallmark of gold in the Superocean replica collection, with a black dial with classic gold-plated accents and 18-carat red gold bezel and crown. In addition, the orange dial model in this size is a limited edition made in collaboration with surfer Kelly Slater.

Finally, we have the 36mm Superocean replicas. Here we have the dial options in white, turquoise and orange. Since the bezel insert is still ceramic, but seems to match the color of the case metal, these watches have a significantly lighter tone. It makes these smallest Superocean's look very different.

Case thickness varies, with the larger 46mm watch being 13.22mm thick, while the 42mm watch is 12.56 (the 44mm case is only slightly thicker than the 42mm at 12.62mm).

 

The Movement

All new Superocean watch replica are powered by the Breitling Calibre 17 automatic movement, which is their modified ETA 2824 offers a power reserve of approximately 38 hours. The entire collection is water-resistant to 300 meters, and as you'd expect, each watch has modern features, including sapphire glass, screw-down crowns, and what appears to be a lot of streamer on the hands and chunky hour markers.

 

The Strap

The two strap options (a sporty rubber strap and a new three-row metal bracelet) have a folding clasp that can be fine-tuned up to 15 mm high for easy wear over rashes and diving suits.

 

Price

As you might expect, there is also a wide range of prices, from $4,600 for the 36 mm version to $6,700 for the version with gold accents.
