Made to move between the waves and the waterfront.
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 spear-and-arrow hands, ceramic rotating bezel, and naturally sleek proportions made it a favourite of stylish adventurers who lived for the sea and the scene. Today, that philosophy is still at the core of the Superocean Heritage. It’s got the soul of the 1950s, but designed for today.
The latest Superocean Heritage builds on everything that made the original distinctive- and sharpens it. The collection introduces the B31 automatic movement, Breitling’s first exclusive three-hand manufacture caliber. 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. 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.

Received the Breitling Superocean Heritage B31 Automatic 40mm via priority armored courier within 48 hours of wire clearance. Everything from the serial number engraving to the clasp hallmarks matches the accompanying certification certificates perfectly. The dial catches the light with remarkable depth, and the ergonomics on the wrist are exceptionally balanced. Customer support was communicative and professional throughout every phase of the acquisition. Will certainly be sourcing future pieces from Aurevorn Watches.
