Luxury watchmaker Breitling had unveiled its vision of summer. The Superocean 42 diver’s watch features a blue look that evokes the sky, the sea and boundless horizons.

The Superocean 42 features a steel case water-resistant to 1500 meters (5,000 ft). The dial of this timepiece features dynamic numerals and luminescent hands and hour markers, giving the Superocean a sporty, modern take on the classic diver’s watch. The ratcheted unidirectional rotating bezel is clad in blue rubber, while the strap is also in blue rubber. The rubber contrasts with the steel finish of the polished case and satin-brush on the bezel numerals. The Superocean 42 houses a selfwinding movement chronometer certified by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute), the highest benchmark in terms of precision and reliability and the only one based on an international standard.

The Super ocean 42 will be produced in a limited edition of 2000 pieces.
