Breitling brings the spirit of 1950s to the wrists with its new Heritage Superocean'57 Capsule collection.
Breitling introduced the Superocean Heritage'57 Capsule collection, inspired by the original Superocean model, which became an icon in 1957 with its design. Each model in the collection is a contemporary retro interpretation of the classic sea watch Superocean, which reflects the lifestyle of surfers and beach people.
The Breitling Superocean Heritage'57 Capsule collection is offered with two different dial options, classic black and blue. The black dial version is complemented by a vintage-inspired black strap while the blue dial is offered with a retro-looking brown strap. However, both models can be had with the integrated Ocean Classic stainless steel bracelet if desired.
The two-tone model in the collection stands out with the bi-directional 18K red gold bezel equipped with a black ceramic insert. This model can also be complemented by a gold-brown leather strap or Ocean Classic stainless steel bracelet.
One of the outstanding design features in the Superocean Heritage'57 Capsule model is the bi-directional concave stainless steel bezel with an ultra-hard, scratch-resistant ceramic ring that houses the bright spot at 12 o'clock. This feature makes the watch even more suitable for diving.
The models in the new collection are powered by the Breitling Caliber 10. The automatic movement provides about 42 hours of power reserve when fully wound.
Breitling Superocean Heritage’57 Limited Edition
In addition to the Capsule collection, Breitling celebrates the arrival of summer with a limited edition colorful version. Superocean Heritage’57 Limited Edition has similar design features with its cousins in the Capsule Collection but takes its cool looks one step further.
The Breitling Superocean Heritage’57 Limited Edition has similar features to the Capsule Collection, with its 42mm stainless steel case and bezel. However, the model differs from other models with its markers and hands at 12, 3, 6 and 9 o'clock. It attracts attention with its yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, red and orange Super-LumiNOVA applied accents while boosting up the legibility factor.
Users who want to add more color to their watch can choose one of the NATO straps made of Outerknown Econyl yarn, available in six different colors.
The model, which is sold only in boutiques and limited to 250 pieces, has the inscription "ONE OF 250" on the case back.
