THE STORY​

The Superocean Heritage ’57 Capsule collection pays tribute to the original 1957 SuperOcean and the cool, laid-back surfing lifestyle of the 1960s. This colorful variation comes in a limited edition of 1000 pieces. The 42 mm stainless-steel case features two signature elements of the original SuperOcean: a concave bidirectional ceramic bezel and a dial featuring oversized indices. Paired with a mesh bracelet or a gold brown calfskin leather strap that fits both a stainless-steel pin or folding buckle, this colorful Superocean Heritage ‘57 is powered by the Breitling Caliber 10, a COSC-certified chronometer.
