Now this is a true diver's tool watch - very solidly built, fully polished on all surfaces with Breitling's own modified ETA2824 top grade chronometre movement. It's one of those watches that feels like it can withstand shocks, drops and all kinds of abuse and it will keep on running. It's also rated to 1500m, which in all seriousness, kills any other divers watch in the same pricing category. And to top it all up, the blue dial version is limited to only 2000 pieces worldwide and we're holding on to No. 210. Truly a value proposition for it's price.
Breitling Superocean Blue (Limited Edition)
We wore the watch on a 6 inch (average slim asian) wrist size as pictured on the rubber strap. The blue dial colour really does make this watch a little more special over common black divers. It's got a nice deep blue sheen over certain lightings and looks extremely classy. Wear it on our selected NATO and you'll find that the watch is light enough for everyday wear and gives off the sports tool watch vibe. This watch feels at home for casual days at the beach/outdoor activities. The watch is polished on all case surfaces, which means it can carry the look and feel of a dressier tool watch, depending on the strap you put it on. Try it on a steel mesh bracelet and you can wear it to the office easily. The crystal is slightly domed to prevent scratches to its unique bezel made out of rubber. The crown screws down and winds very solidly - like how a top quality tool watch should feel. The watch does wear quite thick at 15mm, but hey - it's a real tool watch you can seriously wear it anywhere. It still fits under your average work cuff, and you can pair it with a classy milanese mesh steel bracelet to dress it up easily. It's a real solid offering from Breitling and a real gem to own if you're planning to collect an all purpose diver.
