Long days, warm breezes, and the scent of salt in the air. Waves are gently rolling in, the sea is calling, and Breitling answers with polish. Eight years after its last refresh, the Breitling Superocean Heritage returns sharper than ever, pairing 1950s cool with modern-day flair.
Whether diving into the deep blue or drying off from a dip, the Breitling Superocean Heritage does it elegantly with an edge. Neither performance nor aesthetics are compromised; both meet at the knife’s edge, a precarious balancing act aced by the Swiss watchmaker.
A streamlined palette of black, blue, and green accentuates the collection’s characteristic arrow hour and spear minute hands, as well as its distinct inward-sloping bezel with anodised aluminium inlay. Coupled with a range of sizes (36, 40, 42 and 44mm), the Breitling Superocean Heritage suits every wrist and mood. The surf’s not the only thing with power, as the 40, 42 and 44mm pieces are powered by Breitling’s first exclusive three hand B31 manufacture movement under the hood.
With sleek metals, fine detailing and sun-drenched colours that shine from the boardwalk to the waters, the only thing more essential than SPF this summer is a watch with salt in its soul.
Kelly Slater Limited Edition
From dream to reality; Cocoa Beach, Florida to Oahu, Hawaii; and now, the towering Hawaiian waves to the Swiss Alps, Breitling celebrates the indomitable surfing legend Kelly Slater with the Superocean Heritage B31 Automatic 40 Kelly Slater.
Armed with nothing more than a childhood dream to experience Hawaii’s surf culture, Florida-born Slater is now living his dream with a glittering surfing career — 56 event triumphs and a record 11 World Surf League championships spanning three decades. The watch’s foliage pattern dial is a nod to Hawaii’s tropical canopy, while the “One of 500” and “Kelly Slater Limited Edition” engraving sit proudly on the case back.
