What are the highlights of Breitling's new super sea? In our impression, the brand's updating of watches is basically a fuss about the details, and it is rare to "go to war". However, in early July, Breitling released a new generation of super ocean watches, which have changed a lot compared to the previous generation. On the basis of maintaining the dynamic style of the diving watch, the new Superocean watch adds many fashion elements, which is far superior to ordinary diving watches in terms of practicality, and can be worn whether it is daily leisure or surfing diving.

You may not know that Breitling Superocean was among the first batch of professional diving watches in history. It was born in 1957 and is the prototype watch of Breitling Superocean culture. This new generation of Super Ocean draws inspiration from the original Super Ocean Slow Motion watch in the 1960s and 1970s, and has been redesigned to incorporate more modern elements, in line with the aesthetic concept of contemporary consumers.

There are four sizes to choose from for the new generation of super ocean watches, namely 36, 42, 44 and 46 mm. What we see in the picture is the 42 mm model that most people can wear. Its case is made of stainless steel, which is more refined after being brushed.

The design of the dial is quite unique, it adopts blue and white color matching, and the functional division is completely different from the traditional diving watch. The main minute scale is located on the inner ring of the dial. This design is a continuation of the inner ring of the antique Superocean 2005 chronograph, full of retro charm. The outer ring is a small second dial, and the outermost edge is a diving scale ring. It is worth mentioning that Breitling follows the current trend and inlaid scratch-resistant ceramics on the ratchet unidirectional rotating bezel, which is not only beautiful, but also wear-resistant and not easy to fade, which greatly improves the service life of the watch.

The Superocean 2005 we mentioned earlier is a diving chronograph. In addition to the chronograph inner ring, its other characteristic "square" chronograph hands can also be seen on this watch. The new generation of super sea puts the "square" luminous block on the minute hand, and replaces the slender scale with a wide luminous stick scale to ensure that the wearer can accurately know the time even in dim water. In addition, in order to ensure the integrity of the dial, this watch does not have a calendar window, but it has little effect on a diving watch.

The brand equips this watch with a stainless steel bracelet, and the folding clasp is engraved with the iconic Breitling logo, which is highly recognizable.

In order to ensure water resistance, this watch adopts a dense bottom design, making it waterproof to a depth of 300 meters. The watch is equipped with a Breitling 17 self-winding mechanical movement. Although this movement is a general-purpose movement, it has passed the Swiss official observatory certification. The daily error is between -4/+6s. It provides a power reserve of about 38 hours, which is relatively capable in all aspects.

Compared with the previous Breitling Superocean watch, the new generation Superocean not only has great changes in design, but also has a higher price, but friends who are concerned should know that Breitling has adjusted the price this year, and the average increase of the whole series is 5%. So it is expected that the price of Xinchaohai will increase slightly. I personally think that there are quite a few highlights of this new super sea, what do you think?
