With summer in full swing, Breitling is launching a new line-up of its Superocean collection of diver’s watches. The technical flagship is the Superocean Automatic 46 Super Diver, which has an impressive depth rating of 1,000 meters (3,300 ft), making it the deepest diving Superocean timepiece. In addition to this engineering feat, the titanium-clad watch features a patented safety lock for the bidirectional rotating bezel with a ceramic inlay, positioned on the left flank and ensuring that no accidental bezel rotation will interfere with decompression stops.

The dial is available in two cool camouflage hues, black and green. For a pop of color, the tip of the central second hand is yellow. It is furnished with broad hands and indexes coated with Superluminova that allows for easy readability underwater. Interestingly, the design takes clues from an original from the 1960s which was affectionately called “Superocean Slow Motion” thanks to its pared down design.
The Superocean Automatic 46 Super Diver measures 46mm wide and incorporates a soft-iron inner case that offers protection against the effects of magnetic fields. At the heart of the watch ticks the self-winding caliber Breitling 10 which is a COSC-certified chronometer and has a power reserve of 42 hours. The two strap options (rubber or titanium bracelet) have a folding clasp that allows for micro-adjustments of up to 15mm for easy wear over rashes and wetsuits.
