  • Breitling SUPEROCEAN HERITAGE B01 Chronograph 42 AB0156161C1S1

    The Superocean Heritage is no ordinary sea watch—it never was.

    When Breitling first launched it in 1957, it took a different tack from other dive watches of the era. The Ref. 1004 (a sleek time-only piece) and Ref. 807 (the world’s first dedicated dive chronograph) weren’t just about exploring the underwater world—they were about looking good doing it.

    The latest Superocean Heritage builds on everything that made the original distinctive—and sharpens it. The chronograph is powered by the Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01, Breitling’s industry-leading timekeeping movement.

    A ceramic-inlayed bezel adds exceptional scratch resistance, while integrated mesh-metal or mesh-rubber bracelets fit snugly against the case, secured with folding clasps for a clean, watertight finish. Tone-on-tone subdials, a discreet date window at six o’clock, and the original signature hands—arrow for hours, spear for minutes—ensure legibility and balance, above or below the surface.
